m13 processing example step by step

Next digital development was used on the image. I use a user defined kernal
(1 in the center and the rest all 0's in a 7x7 matrix). I do not use the
auto settings, but use a mouse selected value. Trial and error and after a
while I get what I want

Mewlon won't come to focus with AP telecompressor!

Posted By Larry Citro

hi Eric,

The Em-200 is a great mount, no problem at 2415 mm FL as you have showen. Get the Tak focal reducer, it works well and gives you f9. The AP didn't work in my Mewlon 250 either.

clear skies,

Hi,

The Vixen VC200L is a great imaging scope. 8" aperture,F9 and 1800mm FL.

Here's a link to an image of m51 I took with it using a ST10XME
