Done right the C14 should actually produce better pictures. By "done right" I mean hundreds of short exposures stacked with a program like Registacks. Only if the local conditions at your house, i.e., heat plumes, prevent resolution at your house would the refractor do better photographically. Sig On 2009-12-28 01:27, Patrick Wiggins wrote:

Nice. Based on your numbers it looks like the image resolution is about 10 km.

Make me wonder how much better the refractor will do.
