Great Pic. Mario I have been looking at the Mini Borg 50 also it looks like the best choice if you are not going to use off axis guiding. I also like the way CCD Auto Pilot works so you set everything up ahead of time and then it starts automaticaly at a set time. I like MaximDL but I can get by without it for the time being. great pic. of the Northe American Nebula!!!! Clear Skies Doc.! Ken Bise
