Moon: September 23, 2007

Got a better shot today. I focused on a star first and then moved to the moon.

BTW, The moon looked wonderful today using the 4mm BO/TMB. Best view of the satellite I have ever had. Detail was great and crisp. Two thing I would like to add are a variable polarizing filter and a 2x Barlow. They have been added to my wish list along with a better mount.

This on came out better than the last. I was able to play with the ISO and shutter speed settings. Again, it is prime focus with the Sony A100 and Orion 80ED.

Played around a bit with the A100 and 80ED. Did not have enough time to work on focusing.
