Details:
This was Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) on January 24 in a wide-field view (with it appearing as a green blip between the two Dippers), and in a close-up view with 250mm of focal length for a field of view similar to binoculars. The dust tail, ant-tail and long ion tail are visible to the camera, but in binoculars only a short stubby dust tail was obvious. Otherwise, the comet looked like a large fuzzy glow in binoculars. It was just naked eye, if you knew exactly where to look!
