Help with FOV on Stellarium and CdC

[Earl]

I would like to setup the Ocular on Stellarium to match my ED100 with a Canon 450D on it and on CdC the same but with also my 80mm Guide with a QHY6.

How do I go about doing this accurately?

If you used Ron's CCD Calc it will give you the FOV of any combo of lens/ eyepiece/ scope - just enter that into the CDC tab finder field.

With Stellarium you need the ocular plugin. Once you have it you can hit ctrl+0 (or is it alt+0) to bring up the config tab. In here you can enter the data you need.

Have a look here:

I did find I needed to download a beta version to get the DSLR bit to work properly, it wasnt working out the boundary rectangle properly on the latest release, hence the beta.
