Stuff To Do With 0.7 Mechanical Pencils

Is very smooth and the pencils glides very quickly.

I have been using the Celestron 0.7 Edge HD Reducer Lens on my C-1100 Edge HD for about five years. It certainly does reduce the effective focal length to 70% of the base telescope but that is not as important as the substantial reduction in exposure time by about 50%. What previously required a 20-minute exposure now can be done in 10 minutes. In most if not all environments, the seeing would not support the full focal length of the 1100 resulting in photo images that are actually clearer than without the reducer.

Very simple to sync. Just as good as other top rated pencils.

Do what they say they will.

Weighted - solid - easy to find in our drawer of crayons, markers, pens, pencils, etc.!

The best mechanical hard drive I had ever used.

I purchased both the 10mm and 11mm Artisans and found the 11mm definitely sharper when comparing lettering at 400% on a calendar in a room shot, however at 4 inches the 10mm was amazing. Purely by accident while shooting tests with the 10mm with the Lumix S1r I focused the camera on a pad of paper I had written notes on in pencil. Along side of the pad were 8 or so new Dixon pencils with gold stamped lettering all sitting on a dining room table cluttered with computers etc. At f8 with the lens so close the background dropped beautifully, but what astounded me was the detail of the lead pencil writing on the paper the the gold leaf stamping on the pencils. Photo had Color, contrast and even a bit of micro detail in the paper texture and writing. Based on this and other tests, this is a great lens for very closeup experimental work. Colors are accurate and vibrant. Lens is seemingly well corrected for this type of work with Capture one correcting purple fringes. For room shots and sharpness stick with 11mm unless you need the extra angle.
