Re: [APML] Antares this year

Loke,

You would ask that question.  AP quotes the 180 at 2.7 by 3.2 degrees, for
6x7 cm photography, plotting that on The Sky says it should not fit my
image. Now here comes the bad part.  When I last moved 20 years of notes
went missing so the details of the where and when of most of the 11
negatives is gone.  When I look at recent 105 EDF negs. the field seems
wider than this image.  When I look at a 4x5 image from this year it easily
covers the area.

Bottom line is you may have caught me on this one, they may be 105 EDF
images in which case I really screwed up on the data sheet.  I'll just have
to do some checking this month when I'm out to verify the field.

Here is an idea of the full field width of the 180 on 4x5 film.

The large dark area is a shadow from my OAG but this gives you an idea of
the coverage.

Hmmmm

BTW Here is a 300mm shot of the same area.
