[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 824868, member: 48483"] Stellarium is a Linux project and ported to Windows and Mac. Kind of surprised your version would be crippled. When the sensor specs are entered right for your camera, the telescope selected shows as the box, which is the estimated field of view. It is very close based on past projects. I never have bothered with the ocular view because the FOV box is going to approximate my image capture. So I think that answers it. I set my Sigma lens to be 600mm and I set the diameter to the front element opening. You have to Google for the Z8 sensor specs (XY resolution, pixel size, density) and that all calculates the image capture box. Maybe there is some keyboard way to cycle the telescope? Maybe click it with mouse and use the touch gestures to scroll? I only know enough Mac to install printer drivers and fix print configuration problems. [/QUOTE]
