Description

Testing my new C8 v4 HyperStar on my Celestron EdgeHD 8". I feel like the collimation is just a bit off, definitely some coma in the corners, and Orion was fairly low on the horizon. This is also my first time using a L-Pro filter. And my mount is an Alt/Az Evolution on a wedge. My guiding stats were pretty terrible, but don't seem to have impacted the image too much.
