Here is a 2-pic stitch of the Northern Terminator from Friday morning. This was taken with a newly arrived DMK 31AF03.AS with a .5x focal reducer attached to an Orion Starmax 127mm Mak-Cass. This camera is very versatile. When you run out of Lunar or Planetary targets, you can switch right over to deepsky. I'm waiting for seeing to improve so I can get better results with the 16" f18 Dall-Kirkham.

You and I had the same thought - I've just begun working with the 41AF02 camera for lunar images. Best of luck with your new toy!
