Brent, a brilliant photo as usual. Hopefully, I will soon begin imaging for the first time and hope to someday pull pics like you and Mark do with regularity. Got all the gear, everthing is setup, just waiting for the clouds to go away....

Mark,

Nicely done! Those wide angle shots are fantastic. Was that with your 80mm? What camera?

Thanks
An 80 mm would never get that wide
Im using the SXVF-H9 and a 135 mm camera lens
The SX imager has the same chip as the dsi pro iii
I have the DSI III set up for lunar and planetary imaging so I dont have to switch things back and forth
