Description

This time with 60 seconds exposures. The stars in the center of the image are looking perfectly round. Ready for 120 seconds exposures, but at ISO1600. Clouds did not permit more than 36 frames, but only one discarded, what a yield. No filters, no calibration, no tricks.

BTW, with the 0.63x reducer plus T-ring and rotation ring the focal plane sits at FL=1380mm (nominally at 1280mm with the standard visual back).

Rev B: is a quick wide field shot (28mm lens on StarAdventurer) centered on Antares while capturing M20 with the C8. Clouds granted only 25 frames, but all were good.
