Hi all,
I am thinking about getting a CCD camera with small pixels to use with my 5" f/5 refractor, since my ST9 gives me about 7 arcsec/pixel!! I have been considering the 2000XM but have heard some stories that it has a microlens layer that can cause imaging artifacts when used with short focus refractors. Has anyone used one of these with a short focus refractor? Does anyone know if there are imaging artifacts and how bad these are?
Thanks,
Maurice
