SLR T-adapter to 1.25" filter adapter question

Posted By Alan Friedman

Gene -

I have an adapter (single piece) I purchased from Astro-Physics a number of years back that has a Nikon bayonet mount on one end and a 2" nosepiece on the other. The 2" nosepiece is threaded for 2" filters. They still sell these to fit most common SLR brands.

For bad seeing you certainly pulled a pig out of the poke! Excellent image.

Nice!

I just received today the testing Beta version of Mac software (Astro IIDC) for my 21BFO4. Of course I've missed the chance for clear weather that was here most of the week. sad

Very interesting image. I don't know this region so it is hard to get a good sense of the scale. There seem to be many horizontal streaks and gouges in the lower section.

Lunar mosaic 2005.03.16.

A little contrasty on my screen - but I like the rich tones in the maria. The huge mosaic is so tempting but a daunting project with a long focal length. Might be fun to divide it up and do a collaborative lunar image as a project for this forum?
