Looks good. I haven't yet tried this guy with the 14" scope. Seem to
have too many other things on the list and it will be around a while
yet. Now if the weather will ever clear.

Thx Rick!,
Only my chip is to small for it.... next time i will turn the camera 90
degr.

Dirk,

that's a close fit. Maybe you could build yourself a camera with one of those KAF11000 chips ;-)

Your camera and setup would be well suited for planetary nebula imaging. It
has a very impressive scale to do this.

Thx Joe, I did some imaging on the eskimo nebula last time, it was only not
sharp due to foggy conditions.
I will post that image here to let you see the scale.

Ha jah, Hoofddorp is niet bepaald donker ... maar denk toch wel ietsie beter
dan dat ik zit: hartje Haarlem ;-) Tis dat mijn scope niet echt handelbaar
is, anders had ik al menig weekendje bv op Schiermonnikoog (1 van de
donkerste (en mooiste) plekken in Nederland) gezeten ... of in de Ardennen.
Ah well, druk aan t sparen voor beter spul.
