Post by bart1805 »

First decent try of the new 150mm F8 Skywatcher. With 1,25 Glasspath, a 2,5x Powermate, single stack with PST etalon.

Good images, Bart. It's looking like a nice little active region. We'll see how it develops over the coming days.

Nice new toy :)

Thanks!
Yes, nice new toy, but still struggling with it. It was easier to focus with the Bresser 127, or is it just the seeing I am fighting against?
