Odd halos in SW Esprit 80ED

Recommended Posts

I bought a Skywatcher Esprit 80ED, and I'm getting fans instead of halos! I already tried a different camera than the one I use, but they're still there. It can't be due to the flattener eather, because rotating it, the halos point at the same direction... Does someone have an idea of what causes this?

Thanks.

I was planning on doing it tomorrow (I was going for the double perseus cluster) without it for a while, will tell the results on monday.

Also, I think I explained myself badly. The 'fan' rotates but along the actual field. So If it points for example to the trapecium in M42, it still points there when I rotate the flattener, will edit the main post
