These are the first pictures taken with the 10mm Hyperion of an heavenly body this morning on my balcony.The results are not so successful, but Venus anyway it's hard to catch in less light being closer to the Sun.The firstpicture above is the original, and yhe others are edited in Fast Stone.I've reduced gamma slightly and increased the sharpness.

I wanted to test for connecting the accessories of Hyperion 10mm. with Nikon D 80, and it seems like two of the accessories I bought for no use this moment. Buy first only the T-2 M43 adapter for Hyperion and extension tubes T-2 40mm. and 7,5mm.,later. And of course you have to buy the T ring for Nikon.
