Hello Tyson

I saw your picture of Uranus but I am overwhelmed by a something.. How in the world is it possible to get 200x magnification or more with a camera attached to the telescope? Is it achieved with a numeric zoom inside the camera?

I would be glad to understand that.

Thanks.

  Increase the focal length. I have an SCT focuser that extends the light path. Also, I used a 3" extension tube , again, increasing the focal length.
