Some more questions about the 66mm

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo

David, I was out with the WO66SD last night, but I was mostly "testing" imaging with it... not visually testing.

I'll test some Orthos & Plossls tonight and will get back with you on this...

As far as CA goes, I have NOT seen any so far...

Nice picture there... I guess I'll have to get me one of those TMB APOs in order to see so much "detail"... grin


Clear skies!

Sure you can John! 8)
First of all, make sure your photos are JPEGs (or .JPG for short)

When you are posting an ad, you'll have an option to browse for a pic, do that and go to the location where the file is located, and select your file.
After that is just a matter of posting your ad, the pic "should" be included...


Let me know if you need any more help, 8)
