Dew Shield Contrast Improvement

[beka]

Hi All,

The area I live has a fair amount of ambient light from street lighting, neighbors window, porch lights and so on. Just wanted to ask those who have used a dew shield with a CPC 1100 or other SCT - can use of a dew shield significantly improve visual contrast on planets and DSOs? I rarely have had problems with dew though.

Thanks!

Wait till you get in a solid sized field with the right conditions before being sure about not having a problem with dew
