no biggy.

but if that is Orions belt~
there is certainly something "off" there.

did you try any with the tele lens off?

I did. Can hardly even get Venus close that way. I tried it with wide, no converted and tele. Without the tele it was almost useless. I think the Orion picture is with Wide, however. I remember now that I actually couldn't zoom out further and all other footage is basically closer to the horizon, so I cut off Orion's head. So sorry.

Well, I can clearly see Betelgeuse, the other shoulder, the belt and Rigel. Looks all pretty 'normal' to me.
Orion, play with your monitor and see if it helps. If that doesn't let me know and I'll raise the contrast more.

also... Czymra...

did you also do it without the "binoc" type lens that you have added?

Okay I effed-up (the Milky Way has not been visible for years)

I meant to say that all of a sudden the Big Dipper has not been present for the past few years. And that is weird.
