I listed four lenses today. The DA 55-300, I will hold off listing until the end of the week, in case someone here wants it.

I get shivers from that image, as it reminds me of that TV show Lost. The one that Lost the plot about 1 season in.

Nice though, don't get me wrong
Thanks, I never watched that show - but I will take your word for it

I can confirm that the DA can produce beautifully sharp images at f/11, even on the 24Mpix KP
The bottom of a milk bottle stopped down to f11 would do a passable image.

Sorry, my bad. The P30N will still be free to a new home though.

Looking forwards to it, going to be a long one too, with totality lasting around 75 minutes, and the total eclipse taking over 5 hours from the beginning of penumbral to ending of the penumbral eclipse.
It would be perfect for that 250-600mm Ross.. I will have my Telescope all ready to go
