Description

I'm changing my gear to have a greater resolution, so I'm switching from a TS APO 115/800 (working with 0.8 focal reducer) to a brand new Skywatcher 200 PDS.
As a first test, I wanted to compare the performances of the two telescopes so I picked a subject that I already photographed last year.
The comparison told me that the switch from 1.5 arcsec/px to 1.0 arcsec/px is justified and the new images have more details.

Then, I decided to combine the two datasets to take advantage of the great integration time and this is the result.
