Re: [APML] [OT] Stellarvue AT1010 Nighthawk good at photos?

Nicola,

I have been using the `02 version of the AT1010 since July.   It is a 
fantastic scope for the money and, like Tim, I love the scope  

I have done a little bit of solar and lunar photography with it.   So far 
I have used it for afocal projection and eyepiece projection photos.  
I shoot b&w so I do not know about color fringing.

The only picture I have on the web from the AT1010 is
http://www.users.qwest.net/~robandkatemartin/sunspots-
2Sept02.jpg .   
This was taken with Ilford Delta 100 instead of TP so there is a bit 
more grain.

Regards,
Rob Martin
