Description

Received a Stellarvue SV80St-25SV for Christmas, and had a semi clear evening to give it a test. Clouds moved in on me, so I was only able to take 8 images.

Not sure where the little dark purple dots all over the image came from, they are on the corrected, debayered frames. Playing with a single raw imagae, debayered, I don't see them, so it appears it came from the correction process.

Third attempt. Still have the dark spots, but better color and contrast. Will have to try another image session, if the clouds will clear out for a night or two!
