Wide Fields

Many areas of the sky are best photographed through a camera lens rather than a telescope. Many objects are too large to fit in the field of view of even a low magnification wide field of view eyepiece but can be nicely framed with a camera lens. In many cases several objects can be captured in a single frame and it can be interesting to see them in relation to each other. Shorter focal length lenses are also less demanding in terms of tracking than longer focal length scopes.
