+Graham Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Like that a lot Allan. Is that with the GT and flattener ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyaardvark Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Looking good Allen. Super Image. Can't wait to see the added colour :-) Allan the Plumber 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan the Plumber Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 Like that a lot Allan.Is that with the GT and flattener ???? Hi Graham no flattener as chip size on the 460ex and GT 81 focal length doesn't need it so none of this distancing from reducer and flattener as with the 314l+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ibbo Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Hi Graham no flattener as chip size on the 460ex and GT 81 focal length doesn't need it so none of this distancing from reducer and flattener as with the 314l+ I think thats what Sheila picked up around the edges and not a PA error you may want to to rethink the flattener though it does not look so bad top right it could be you are slighty cockled relative to the chip or you could do what I do when I remember and crop the edges off :D Allan the Plumber 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheila Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) Sheila can I pick your brains on PA as this new mount doesn't seem as aligned as my last but thank you for your reply see you at Kelling Ps are you doing the bookings for 2016 Autumn Kelling pitches this year too Alan I dont know your mount maybe quiz someone with this type. Or better still buttonhole someone at kelling your stars though show something else that is not PA, And yes i will try and do the same as last year for the bookings Edited July 7, 2015 by Sheila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheila Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 should read the previous post before I post I have seen this twice before, with Stephen (Kheldar) and Graham, If you search you will find some discussions on here I think about the GT81 or better still ask Graham or Stephen Sheila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
