4" APO beat out a C-14 Seven of us ALL agreedPosted By Mike Clemens |
I've done this too, but from about 90 feet. If I read him correctly, and recall correctly, Valery D. had talked about spherical abberation in SCT's increasing with a lot of mirror travel, particularly to accomodate close subjects. Maybe the SCT was getting the short end of the deal?

Would you still upgrade to the 10D if you went back in time, Paul?

My guess.. It would probably be alright on-axis, but not being able to see the field stops would be irritating. The 6.6mm field stop would be easy enough to fully illuminate. The high power would magnify prism defects as opposed to barlowing up first.

Anyone else have a problem w/the pic in this add?Posted By Mike Clemens |
Simple -
Photographers commonly use bounce reflectors to enhance foreground lighting in backlit situations.
I would suggest that this photographer used a 400,000 square mile sheet of tin foil, in some type of rigid frame, placed in lunar orbit.
By remotely controlling the angle of the reflector, he acheived the desired lunar phase for the eclipse. Genius !

Wow! $3900 for a PENTAX EP..Posted By Mike Clemens |
Where did you see $3900? I have only seen Markus selling these and exchange rates place it at $5900 now. If it's only $3900 I'm going to buy four, one for each eye and one for each ear.
