Yeah, aperture fever knows no limits, so somebody had to do it. Let's see - minimum power of around 180x, actually over 200x with Paracorr...I guess you would...
I've been fooling around with my M8C and various software packages to do the debayering (AIP4Win, IP, Astroart, Maxim). I get wildly differing results with...
Steve – I have a 55 and a 135. Kirbini _____ From: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Steve Barkes Sent:...
Kirbini, Perfect!! Can I swing by sometime this evening and pick them up? I'd like to check out your POD as well. If not let me know when is good for you. ...
Steve - I have Pentax compatible 28 mm (Rexagon), 55 mm (Pentax), and 135 mm (Vivitar) lens. You are certainly welcome to borrow them. Bill William L. Stein ...
I have a few 50's, an 80-200 zoom, and either a 35 or 28 wide angle (forget which). A short-term loan is okay. Some of this stuff dates from Vietnam... Chuck...
Right, I got that. I did not know the details, and am interested in knowing what to expect. Chuck ... think it's important to know the details........... ... ...
Thanks Chuck, and Bill. I'm going to borrow a couple from Kirbini and visit his shrine/pod. I just hope I know which end of the ceremonial water pipe to put...
Somehow I doubt that Mr. Lowry will cart it over to the ranch, but I think if Nils and Rich get cracking they can have a 49"er ready by June. Maybe you can...
Folks, We have three weekends in April with scheduled ASLC activities, and we need help... Saturday April 12: International Sidewalk Astronomy Night We will...
OF COURSE he'll bring it over to the Ranch - wouldn't you?!! How often can one make a 36" scope look 'so-so'. And if the mountain won't come to Mohammed,...
C'mon Nils. Let's do the 49er. We'll get Tony to make up a bunch of 6" hexagonal f/2 mirrors and piece them together like a honeycomb. We can use fairly...
OK, I'll bite. Why stop at 49"...that's kinda an odd aperture. But you will have to show me where to stick the eyepiece/camera...unless we just observe at...
No worries, I can knock this out before lunch............. Tony ... From: nils_a@... To: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2008...
Hi Folks, Thanks to George Hatfield's help, I managed to get the 14.5" RC installed at our JMSM Observatory. This particular telescope was one I built several...
Hello Folks, Here are a couple of images you might enjoy. These were the last images taken with a TMB152 prior to switching over the the RC at our JMSM...

Extraordinary quality. Love those pinpoint stars. You can see the nostrils on the horsehead! Chuck ... images taken with a TMB152 prior to switching over the...
The horsehead is nice but we see that every day, M63 however is extraordinary! Tony ... From: csterlin88001 To: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday,...
... Yes, extraordinary. People ask what do you get for paying your dues to the club. I consider being able to see these images that you all create almost...
Way to go, Mike (and George)! The test image certainly creates a sense of anticipation for whats to come. The increased image scale over the TMB (about 2.5...
By the way, guys, note that this 48" giant actually possess a low-diffraction optical train by using a relatively "small" diameter central obstruction -- an...
It looks like this GIANT would have about the same image scale as Tony's scope. The GIANT is f/4 right? So the focal length would be about 4900mm and the...
Well F/4 is F/4 no matter how large the aperture gets so the exposure doesn't change but oh my, that resolution and image scale. My ultimate lunar imaging...
Yeah but who wants to take a scope like that and shoot at prime? To be realistic I'd run a 2X barlow for a EFL of 10,000mm, 0.12 arc/sec. per pixel. Even...
Thanks Dave – I have tried Gradient Xterminator in the past and felt it was pretty good – also noiseware pro which will do 16 bit. However, I have found...
