Nice shot.
This must be medium format judging by the FOV.

Looks good, you must shoot from a fairly dark site being that these are only 2 minute shots.

I shot this last week as well and will post it soon.

I'm not real happy with the color shift on the left from the amp glow and don't understand why the darks didn't take care of it but here is a B&W version. smile

I hope you were not mis-guided into thinking this was made at Astro-Physics because it is not. They are imported from a reputable Mfg. which I believe is located in Japan. The only thing Astro-Physics does is equip them with protective rings to prevent the 3 point guide scope rings from denting the tube.

These are really nice Radek.
I see that you use a UV/IR blocking filter, is this because your modified camera has no filter protecting the chip? What exactly does it do to a shot with and without this filter?

Well if I had to make a guess I'd say it is a Eastern Willet, but it is only a guess. smile
