Description

I started testing my new scope, an Omegon 76ED Triplet + Flattener. My main goal was to check for optical errors like distortions. It seems to look fine. I didnt even used flat frames, but the sensor is also pretty small. 

PS... the Omegon 76ED, Sharpstar 76ED and TS-Optics 76ED are all the same scope just rebranded right? Because I'm using the TS-Optics branded flattener on the Omegon scope because i got a deal on it and the technical drawings of the scope were the same. It seems to fit, physically and optically.
