Sionyx on scope eyepiece

[mosstrooper]

I treid my sionyx on my WO Megrez 72mm using a teleview delite 18mm with the sionyx hand held to the eyepiece and took some snaps of perseus double cluster. Despite the full moon and not seeing much by eyeball bar a couple of bright stars of the cluster, i was surprised the sionyx picked out the two clusters with many stars visible, although my hand held efforts were a bit shaky. Am getting an adapter to mount the sionyx to the eyepiece and will post some pics this week.

With afocal you want to use the longest focal length eyepiece to give the brightest views. Good to hear that you’ve had some success, keep us posted how you get on.
