Description

An experiment: I turned my 200/1000 mm. f/5 Newtonian into a superfast f/3.5 by adding the Astro-Physics CCD 0.67 telecompressor (spacing provided 0.71 reduction)
I realized the Eastern Veil would fit this way in my setup so I shot a quickie between the clouds. Just 2 hours. It was so fun! Signal was strong in just one sub!
Good collimation helped, too.
