400/500mm - 17.5" (4/18/98): faint, very small, slightly elongated NW-SE, 20"x10", fairly high surface brightness. I probably was only viewing the core of this edge-on member of HCG 70. Forms a close pair with IC 4370 = HCG 70D just 30" N. The brightest member IC 4371 lies 1.8' S.

900/1200mm - 48" (5/12/18): at 488x; very bright, moderately large, very elongated NW-SE but strongly concentrated and dominated by an extremely bright small core, ~12-15" diameter. The very low surface brightness extensions increase the size to ~45"x12". Brightest of 7 galaxies in HCG 70.
