The new camera seems to give you a better exposed image than the
previous one.

Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct.
Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh".

Very nice picture John.
Now you have the QHY8 camera? How does it compare to the ST2000XM?
Actually I could be tempted to buy one myself, although that would be stupid
as the thing I need most would be a new mount...
