30cm MEADE CLASSIC LX200:+ Starlight Xpress Lodestar CCD in brief exposure images via my observatory mounted scope mostly at ultra-fast f/2.9 [Meade nominal f/3.3 FR] in live-view mode.
With better flats, taken at dusk, the full unvignetted frame via the SX Lodestar CCD is achieved in this productive session near summer solstice.

These
are some recent images via my observatory mounted 30cm Meade Classic LX200
SCT with Starlight Xpress SXVF_M9 CCD camera mostly at f/6.3 and homemade f/5
focal reducers and also at the native f/10 for larger image scale and potential detail.
These shots at f/10 - some with a simple red interference filter serving as a pseudo H-alpha filter on emission objects like M1's 'filaments' and M42
