Still hot frames. I was testing some solutions for my setup today but when i started to capture it I just couldn't resist to wait for more. It is so nice to see it within all theese stars

Lodestar x2 mono + canon 200/2.8 lens, no filters, tons of dew and clouds everywhere (how can You not love EAA and LL!).

Very nice wide field view.

Lovely result, very wide angle so you should be able to get some interesting groups of objects with that setup.

One question gents.
Is simple UV/IR Cut filter good choice for reducing star bloat when using lenses?

[MrOD]

Another test session revealed very satisfying result for me. This time no dew, no clouds however with Moonlight.
