The enlarged view shows a really, REALLY nice image!! Kudos rdc! I should
ask where you bought the camera, where one can get specs on it and what you
paid for it?
Also, I must point out that a CM1400 (in the strict sense) was not used, but
instead, a C14. Pictures like this are the result of excellent stability
and tracking accuracy, neither of which are hallmarks of the CI-700 mount
(which makes a C14 into a CM1400), along with a ccd camera which is a good
match to the telescope.
Thanks for sharing those really fine pictures!
