You can't always get what you want...

Another round of images with my NS11 and Olympus digicam. The seeing and transparency were really good this morning at about a 7/10 Pickering and 4/6 for transparency for the first time in about 4 months but my images were not any better than previous ones.

I still haven't figured this out but I'm speculating that I need more magnification. I estimate my system is presently at F20, so I figure I need to be at F30~40 for better images. That means another eyepiece or barlowing .

Any way, here's the image:

Jose,

Hi Jose -

Despite your complaints, that is a nice image!

If you find that the image is not better, even in good seeing, maybe the collimation is slightly off?

Just guessing here.....great image anyways!

Jose, if not the best, definitely one of the best Digital Camera shots I've seen!
Great detail my friend!



Thanks!
