    Tonight, I finally tried out the meade ccd camera I have had for awhile.
    
    I got some test images, for a area around Capella.
    
    I used a focal reducer, so as to have a wider feild of view. Used the ccd camera, with my 4 ince refractor.
    
    Will tommorow determing feild size, faintest star seen.
    
    In the meantime, here's my test images.

    Capella become messed up, in the longer exposure's, I don't give a beep. 
    I be using the ccd camera, to look at geo sat's, and other high up stuff.
    Then look for a trail caused by them.
    
    But looking at geo sat's, and other high up stuff could be awhile. I am so use to using the video camera, as I like that way of observing.
