RE: [APML] Traveler, film, and focal reducer

That is interesting.  I just shot with the Traveler and new field
flattener and found extremely minimal vignetting in the extreme corners.
This is the best performance photographic scope I have experienced.  I
will be posting full frame images in the next couple of weeks.

Jeff, no direct experience but Terrence Dickinson and Alan Dyer 
(Backyard Astronomer's Guide) do not rate the Traveller as a good choice

for photography because of the vignetting. That said, I recently saw a 
photo taken with a Traveller and it looked pretty good (may have been 
cropped though - didn't say).

Hope this helps.
