I did get myself a very early Christmas gift: a TeleVue 2" PowerMate 4x And last evening I had first light with it.
Sadly there was a lot of seeing but the results were already good. It does make my scope a f/40 (8000mm FL) system but the large pixelsize of my Zwo ASI482MC can handle that very well ... at least, when the seeing is good to perfect
Busy now with processing the shots but I did first make this animated GIF of sunrise shadows in and around Walther. It's a 50 minutes difference.

Nice - good effect and resolving things only about 1.5 km across! Tim

Thanks Tim.
Didn't realize I was down to that scale already
