Pretty cool shot Steven. It does look like a mushroom. The colours in the star field are great. Soft as.

It's a well known fact that a drinking straw is the only way to suck more photons in...

nah nah nah, don't care what brand you buy (This would be perfect though http://www.flicamera.com/fli/microline.html ) but man, it's like those ladies who pull up at the supermarket in the nice big shinny 4X4 to just go shopping . That BRC was intended to have 6X7 film at the focus not a punny little KAF3200 chip.

PS. I am only being lighthearted ....in case some may missread my humour

It's all relative Mike. Given that I started with a ST-7, the ST-X10ME has an enormous chip area.
