Dear all,
after a long absence I've finally completed my new telescope, and I was blessed with a good night. It took me almost two years to design and build the telescope, a DK 505 mm f/20,
in fact a larger version of my previous 410 mm DK. However moving to 20" is a giant step, the mirror is 60 mm thick and heavy, therefore it requires a solid structure. I'm still using my trusty AP1200, it's at the limit but working fine.
This is probably my best image of Jupiter, I moved to a new camera, Point Grey GS3 with Sony IMX252 with larger image scale and lower noise.
Thanks for the attention and best regards
Tiziano
