Nice results TenaCDed (what's your first name ?)
I suggest you try our digiscoping test and post your results. I will post mine shortly and Paul should do so as well. Once we have some results, I will publish a database of results. Should be interesting.

Looks good, John, especially for 1600 iso. I will probably order the barlow and extension tubes tomorrow as I have been thinking about trying this setup with the Celestron 80mm astro scope. Here are a couple of other photos taken with the Celestron 80ed astro version:

After re-reading your post I might be confused. Are you using a Celestron Ultima 80ed spotting scope or the Celestron 80ED astro scope?

Very good Jules. Looking at the histograms I'd say they are all slightly over exposed and they all exhibit a blue cast which I noticed on the ones from last week too. With all doublet scopes there will be one colour that isn't as well corrected as the other two colours so maybe your scope just has more of a blue shift. I ran one through Adobe Lightroom and it's easily corrected.
