Re: [APML] New image: M8

["Volker Wendel" <volker@spiegelteam.de>]

Chris, Jim,

thanks for your compliments about our M8-shot!

I tried to persuade Bernd not to take film images with the Hypergraph
because I wanted to shoot more ccd-objects but for this shot it was worth to
take all the film equipment with us, itīs my favourite film shot so far
(some more to come <g>).

Philipp Salzgeber gave you some informations about the Hypergraph. In short
words I can tell you that itīs a cassegrain design with a corrector lens
system created for nearly diffraction limited stars across the 6x7 format.
The M8 shot is not cropped! The obstructions is of course hugh! Teiva,
divide the DM prices by 1,95 to get the Euro prices. Could be that the
prices are more expensive now than listed in Philipp Kellers page....

When I have more time than now, I will add a special page about the farm we
visited and of course with some images from the telescopes we used.

Volker
