No, tracking was bang on, the avi for that image was 90 seconds, and it didnt budge. If you remember the M42 image a week or so ago, it was at the same focal length, give or take. Only pec errors were visible, but that didnt matter here as its an avi. If I could show you the avi (its over 1gig), you would see that there were some instants that the seeing just went mad, thats the only way of describing it. :?
All images I take are at that focal length, if not a little longer due to extensions, I rarely use a focal reducer.
