Description

I'm currently testing the new Vespera telescope from Vaonis. Beside the new solar feature they  also released a new mosaic feature a few days ago.
It is still in beta testing, but it is truly a game changer. Due to the small IMX462 sensor of the scope the original field of view is quite limited even with only 200mm focal length. But the new mode provides almost the double FoV with different aspect ratios. 
After 1:50 hours the internal memory of the scope was full so it stopped imaging, I was able to get a  2,4° x 1,9° field of view with a scope that has only a 1,6° x 0,9° field of view.

Description: Did some reprocessing of the mosaic session of the horsehead and flame nebulae. The potential of these little scopes like Vespera and Stellina is amazing.
