Description

Hello Friends,

After the tedious episode with Cat's Eye I had promised an easy one. So why not doing some fancy stuff. I decided to quickly snap the ASI 6200 to the TS 80/420 which I had only used for guiding so far. I was curious what will show up. I also thought: no need for good weather, I am just tinkering around (the TV program was lousy- so I needed an alternative desperately).

I experience two problems: Some tilt due to the weight of the camera on the rather simple focuser and I did not find the proper flattener (2,5" TS) distance which caused excessive elongation. But since I am experienced I knew what to do! Cropped it

So don't take this image as a serious project (I have only spent 10 minutes for processing), but I had fun and encouraged me to give the tiny one another chance . It is a nifty and cute scope. I definitely underestimated it.

Cheers

Rüdiger

PS: No flats and no darks
