Description

So far, when shooting with the Omegon LX3 and my Canon 200mm lens, stars have been round when shooting due south, but there has been some speed variation if the lens is off to the side. This image of Cygnus was tracking at about 130 ticks/minute, and went to 140 ticks/minute with the +1 spring adjustment. Only 26 of the 60, 1 minute exposures were usable.
