Lunar with an ED100

[Trevor N]

These were taken on the 24th using an ED100 and imaging source camera.  Seeing was very good. I'm always pleasantly surprised what can be done with a 4" scope

Those are cracking images Trevor!

nice and crisp

Really nice. You've managed to capture the rille in the Vallis Alpes too.

Nice to see some good results with 100ED 🙂.

Thanks for the comments. I've always been pleased with the ED100. I think its quite a capable scope, the cool down is very rapid and its easy to move about. I've lugged much bigger and heavier units outside to image and achieved less to be honest. It keeps me amused anyway !

And I can spot 4 craterlets on Plato, very nice!

Yes, the 100ED's are great little moon scopes - you pegged some great details here.   That scope was my hook for refractors....  I hope I am done now!  lol. 

 

Clear skies!

Thanks for the comments. I was trying to convince myself the rille was visible but you’ve confirmed it Bryan !

Good luck with the bigger scopes Mike. You’ve produced plenty of very good images with your ED120 in the past

Love that Clavius mosaic good detail

Very nice, Trevor! Is that the SW F9 ED100? If it is, I love mine to bits. Really sweet on the sun too with safe filters of course. If I kept only one frac, I think it'd have to be the ED100.

Thanks Luke. Yes, it’s the SW ED100 F9. It is a good scope. Trevor
