Now we are talking, very nice Paul, Worth it now? If anything I wonder if the focus is a touch soft on Omega?

Hey they are getting very nice very quickly! Excellent results!

To not have to compress so much, why don't you reduce it to 800px or 1000px wide instead of 1500px wide?

Thanks Gary, yes I am happy to be getting so much red compared to my DSLR. I am happy with the camera, just have to learn how to use it properly. I am not sure about focus, i spent half an hour with a motorised focuser. I am going to perservere a bit more with it before lashing out on a computerised one.
