One more image from the same evening ...

Bought a few years ago on Amazon for $109

Finely collimated with $25 SVbony laser collimator

Risingcam IMX290 color camera 2Mp

Theoretical diffraction-limited resolution for the PS 114 EQ is 1.18 arcseconds, while seeing
limits resolution to around 0.4 arcseconds under the very best conditions (least atmospheric
turbulence), irrespective of telescope aperture. For comparison, Jupiter's red spot subtends
around 5.6 arcseconds.
