So, I tested my newly acquired DMK41 mono cam, both with and without a nosepiece reducer.

What a difference from QHY 5LII- no Newton's rings. Easy focusing, and better frame rate

Quark chromosphere
TS 60ED on iOptron Smarteq
DMK41AU04.AS

Thanks Pete,

Yes, I sorted that out on QHY, but it didn't happen on DMK at all..

No, its a 2 pane image... when i put on a 0.5x reducer on the nosepiece, 3/4th of the sun was there. Guess, I need a bigger chip but they cost £££. Don't want to go the CMOS way because of Newton's rings. Guess I will get a full disc with my guidescope. I will try next time.

Doesn't happen on my dmk21au618 either.
