Neil,
Did you place the webcam with its lens up to an eyepiece for the moon image (eyepiece projection), I just cant imagine you got that image using prime focus (no webcam lens nor eyepiece).

Hi Dave,

No eyepiece projection involved. Just the webcam with the front bit (the lens??) unscrewed and one of those 1' 25" webcam adapators slotted into where the eyepiece normally goes.

Thats surprising,
You can get the entire moon in the FOV of the webcam, 8)

Ive notived that there is less cromatic abbrivation on theese pictures taked without eyepiece with the etx-70.

Is it the eyepieces that came with the scope that makes the abbrivation?

Nice img :) good details

Eirik,
I found the the supplied eyepieces made the image worse compared to the series 4000 eyepieces I have.
