Hi Agnes. I am surprised at the lack of response to your question. I have tried to split Izar with my SW ED scope without success but have managed the double double split. Looking back at my observation notes I have had poor seeing conditions each time I have tried to split Izar (3 times) . On one of these occasions I also had my ED 120 set up and managed the split with that. I have not used the ED 72 very often so have limited experience with it so I can’t really say how good it is on other close doubles. Hope this helps, John

Very nice report.

No the ES are Argon purged.

Yes I agree. I suppose it will stop them from internal fogging but I can’t say I have had a problem with that. They are well worth a punt.

Watched all day Stu but missed it lifting of but I agree it was no longer there at 4:45

Yes but it does not say that on the Maxvision eps.

Looks the same but not sure if the Maxvision is waterproof.

Excellent series. I have been following Venus during this apparition, but visually and doing some sketching. It has been fascinating .

Thanks for that Jeremy.i have always been a great admirer of Paul’s planetary sketches.
