Here's a couple of more using the 5x powermate on the 100ED, as chances to use it a most likely to be few and far between...

How do you work out the scale?
By using a known variable, i.e. 'x'=crater in km, ruler say's 'x'= 'y' in mm...
I put a ruler to the pic...:biggrin:

I like the image scale, and quite sharp images for the magnification that you're at there. The only thing I'd change if possible is to reduce the contrast - the white burnt-out hilights I find distracting from the other good detail in the shots :smile:

I agree Rog. I will have to work on this in the capture process, as in the image processing it is to late to do anything about it.(believe me I tried processing these images several times each before deciding, that is as good as it get's.) Maybe if I'm lucky, I will get another good night, (hopefully in my lifetime.)
Appreciate the critiqueing, :wink: .
