The specs look real good - click on the link to see them. F2.4 to 3.3 and flourite glass- Carl Zeiss sharpness. I have to think, this has to be better than a camera hooked up to a Celestron. I've used a Celestron before and wasn't too impressed with the sharpness or chromic aberrations coming off the main mirror. The remote trigger should help with vibration effects. That said, I'd like to review some raw samples before plunking down the cash. Unfortunately, the main bugaboo with taking long-distance land images isn't so much how much glass you are looking through but how much atmosphere you are shooting through. Best images are obtained on a cold day, just after sunrise and when the humidity is low (not to mention the wind) and as a result any airborne real estate. What makes this scope/camera more than appealing is it isn't real big, won't draw too much attention and moderately high mega-pixels perfect for enhancement. -Steve Douglass
