MPCC Comparison

Hi guys, This week I took delivery of a Baader MPCC and tonight I got a chance to take it out.

While it has not solved all of my coma issues, I am very happy with how it is performing. I think that poor collimation means that it can not eliminate the coma completely, next on the shopping list is collimation tools.

Attached is an image showing one single sub of the lagoon taken with and without the corrector, the corners of the image have been pasted in to show coma. I am far happier with the full frame results now.
