meade 8", focal reducer 1.6,



feel need good x3 barlow and not the reducer, and better focus.

Image is 500 over 2 mins, processed registrax only.

getting there... viewing still better than capture.. .but gap closing

1st time venus looks like anything other than fireball.

For Solar system stuff ditch the reducer on anything other than the Moon and Sun. A decent x2 will give you agreat result.
