I'm not that happy with mine, but I managed twice from urban zones and
cloudy nights. the bright sky makes it impossible to spot it with naked
eyes and ruins color details, so I went for the moderate tele field,
looking for the fuzzy green - then I switch to longer lens if the clouds
allow it. way easier said than done.
no tail so far - but from now on, things will improve as the Moon is
past full, rising each night later and farther from the comet. I'm
currently keeping an eye at weather, tripod/ camera/ outdoors tools at
the ready. getting a proper picture requires dark sky at night - away
from urban zones.
