With the reducer corrector (a must when imaging with larger chips) Noel says the field is very flat corner to corner, likewise the star shapes are good corner to corner. That's why I have two Sky 90s ready to go into the mini-WASP array. I'm starting to get very itchy about putting this (mega expensive) new imaging project together and might start getting the expensive stuff end this year, early next. Thank you Chris – very pleased you like it

What a ripper. To have all three stars - Alnitak, Alnilam and Mintaka in the same frame as Flame and B33 at such scale is incredible. Seeing this image vindicates my choice to add a Sky90 to my Tak collection. Thank you! A stunning image of the area Greg. What a ripper.
