Mar on 28th Nov - 290mm Zen Maksutov

Hi Guys

Here's a shot of Mars taken under reasonable seeing compared with the norm on this apparition. I'm finding it best to image at a longer FL if seeing plays ball. This was imaged at around F26 with the 462MC, which of course is way oversampled. I'm preferring this image scale though

Best Wishes

Very nice, with the bulge of Olympus Mons well seen at the limb. I agree that the extra FL just works, regardless what the maths says is correct sampling.

Thanks Geof. Of course it can't be done easily on Jupiter as the screens not big enough!
