So after I read your one post, on a whim I googled it voila!  I guess it's a matter of messing around with the filters from there. You did a great job with the pic.  Thank you!  In keeping somewhat with the thread, I do like the Sony W300.  My only gripe is where they put the tripod thread.  It is proving to be a little bit of a bastard in terms of fitting a cable release bracket.  I bought the SRB-Griturn compact bracket and the base is too small (or is it the arm or both).  I haven't decided whether to send it back or try to fashion some type of longer base out of plexiglass that I have lying around.Yep, I have been mining some info from there and I think you can get an astro adapter for the Zeiss which allows you to use astro-eyepieces.  I guess you can get around 100x or so (allegedly).  It certainly could never duplicate a real telescope, but it has some promises of basic astro fun. I think I remember reading a post or two about some ability to obtain smaller images of Saturn and being able to distinguish the rings.  That would be neat to see. The fun stuff ahead!William</blockquote>
