Moon Last Night: ED80S again

Posted By Arkady Vodyanik

Hi, colleguaes!

I took this shot using my smallish Vixen refractor and Canon D30. Single shot: at ISO 1600, 0.002s. Eyepiece projection (LV20 and homemade adapter - to fill the camera matrix 100%) There is no image processing - half size only.

Thanks for looking and comments smile

Mars 8/16 with Olympus digicam

Good image, Jose!
Certainly, your Olympus has an excellent IR-blocking filter by itself (probably it is better than my Baader UV-IR-Blocking filter).

Hi, Russ!

It is convincing example for such Q/A:
Q: "what is the best planetary scope"?
A: "Obviously, it is this Tashbaev's 7" APO" smile

Congratulations!
