Comment : Compare these photo with that below. Two different setup of the telescope, one with a x1 field flattener and the other with x0.75. Both of high quality but the x0.75 can't handle a full frame sensor. When I use the x0.75 field flattener I have to crop the image. The image's sub images are not perfect aligned, sometimes it's difficult with the software I use. But with a little bit more time and adjusting the parameters it should be better.
