This is my best pic with my ETX 125 and my Digital Olympus C-725 Ultra
Zoom on a ScopeTronix Ez-Pix II Universal adapter looking into a Parks
16mm in my backyard near Mobile AL. The camera was set im manual mode
TIFF 1984x1488 1/8 sec. exposure at f2.8  ISO 400 WB auto hard sharpness
contrast normal thats exactly how I did it I hope you like it. This is
not the format you specified TIFF would not convert to JPEG on my pc
sorry.           THIS PICTURE IS NOT ENHANCED IN ANY WAY!

I used my Olympus digital camera with the ETX-90 to capture this version
before the dew began building up (foggy enough where I was located) a
week ago.  Also used was the Scopetronix MaxView 40 eyepiece.  It was
just slightly touched up with Adobe Photoshop.

Do the electronic dew prevention devices work better than the shields? 
I have the shield and dew still builds up ... enough.  Thank you in
advance.
 
Best regards,

Mike here: They heat the element and the air right next to the element so they can reduce the occurrence of dew formation.
