The Moon shot this morning.
As I haven't waked up early enough, the scope was not really at the ambient
temperature, so the picture is not as sharp as I would have liked.
Mozaique of 38 pictures, taken with a Toucam Pro at the prime focus of a C8,
with an IR-cut filter.

Great shot! The moon is always a spectacle. A geologic wonder.

A toucam did that with a C8?? The C8 is on the list for me. It's a
mainstay. Is the difference between it and a C9.25 significant?

I don't know the C9.25, but I know that it's a heavy scope. This is one
great advantage of the C8, it's light and when you must go away from home
for observing (because of light pollution) it's something that has to be
taken into account.

Well the 9.25 is a C 11 killer, just as the C 11
is a C 14 killer...... (IMHO)
Of the three the C 11 is probably the best bet,
as a 9.25 really requires literally the same mount
rating. Getting a C 14 all of a sudden means more
mount involved. Getting a C 11 (like me) makes
justifying getting a C 14 much harder...
Tho as some can attest, one can run a C 14 on a G 11
Weight is not the only consideration as well.
These things get bulky, and awkward as size increases.
For a permanent installation, the mount is the most
important part.
That said, a C 8 (or Meade 8") is the most versatile
and useful scope ever devised ;-)

On ne voit pas le fromage, l'image manque de piqué ;-)
