Hi, sorry this may seem a dumb question but how are you shooting this in colour? Any advice for someone using an 8' telescope, I know its not going to see things a 14 inch would but any chance to shooting in colour such as this here? Any advice much apreciated.

@rjr16uk The Mallincams we use are color cameras, and they work for well on 8" SCTs. Is your scope an SCT? Whatever it is, you'll also see it in color, the same as the video above.

Absolutely stunning...I gotta have this thing.

[jmagus1]

@genogeno1234 Yup. Once you've had Mallincam, you'll never go back (except for Jupiter and Saturn with binos, especially 2" binos). I just shot you a note answering your questions.

[25TriggerHappy]

[astrogeek21]

Great job! M57 is my favorite nebula

@SuperACDCForEver ya you could definitely see it. you wouldn't be able to see the remaining star in the center though. i have an 8" Newtonian and i can see the ring, but no star.

[SuperACDCForEver]

Wow! Anyone think u could see it through a 6" Orion reflector w/ a 7.5mm lens?

[flashjacksonbrown]
