The main goal was to test the new corrector from OZON, the one that comes with the Sky-Watcher BK P150 Quattro tube. It says P150F600/F4 on it, there were concerns that it wouldn't fit the tube, but it seems to draw normally, reduction 0.85, it's certainly not a Starizona Nexus 0.75, but it also costs almost 3 times less. Please don't criticize the image quality, the sky was milky, I tried to shoot without a filter at first, it was really sad, with the Antlia Triband RGB Ultra, at least something became visible.

I've also been considering this corrector, but there's very little information available.
It's a good piece of equipment, worth getting.
Does it stick out far into the tube? According to reviews, in a 150P Quattro it extends about 10 millimeters beyond the focuser tube.
