Just thought I'd make sure you had seen it as Patrick offered it and I feel as though I am doing my part to stimulate the economy by getting you and a few others to spend their money. ;) Steve

Hi, Steve, I'm not familiar with that model, but most likely it would be a step up, though my ST402-ME does have color filters too. My next camera, I hope, will be the new ST-8300 M -- if I can scrape together the bucks! Thanks, Joe

Joe:
I hesitate to ask but isn't Patricks used ST-237 with color filters a step up from what you are using? Maybe I'm living in the past but it was the first digital imaging system I used and it sure did a nice job for me. Just had to ask. Steve

Hi, just wanted to correct the note I sent, below. The galaxy that I photographed last, NGC 4565, is called the Needle Galaxy, not the Silver Needle Galaxy. There is a Silver Needle Galaxy, but it is NGC 4244. Thanks, Joe

But I did go to the Wedge Friday night and it was my best night of astronomy so far. When I got my gear in order, it worked beautifully. I think my pictures were better than ever because of my new marine deep-charge battery, which does not shake the ground like my generator did (to say nothing of the lack of noise and gas smell). I imaged M87, showing its giant jet, the Copeland Septet of galaxies and NGC4565, aka the Silver Needle Galaxy. The night started overcast, so badly that I could targets through the light clouds but not focus on them adequately, but suddenly that cleared up. The rest of the time it was clear, dry and still. I was still shooting when dawn began to break. Best wishes, Joe
