(Click to enlarge) I decided to see if I could make my GSO 200mm f/4 a longer focal length imaging instrument. By adding a 2 inch Sievert 1.5x Barlow I bumped the focal length up to 1200mm. With my SXV-H9 camera that gives me a pixel scale of 1.17 arc-seconds/pixel, which is a good match for the seeing in this area from my experience. I believe I could have focused better but overall the scope did well.
