first afocal try of the moon was created by daveg
Hi Folks
First afocal attempt at the moon
nikon coolpix5200 (5MP)
afocally coupled to a celstron 80ed
point and shot then processed in PS
not bad since focusing was done on a tiny screen and the scope was on a wobbly camera tripod.
ONe Q for 80ed users out there is prime focus possible with this scope without a diagonal/erecting prism? the prism supplied with the scoe is really bad quality - I had to rgb shift in Regi to remove the blue outer edges.
