  • Looking at buying a mount, trying to keep the price low. Any ideas?

  • Skywatcher HEQ5,HEQ6 goto mount..

  • wow!!!! these are some magnificent pictures!! question... you probbably answer this before but, when you hook your camera into your telescope, do you get all this magnification, or do you have to do something else to do it? I mean, is your telescope that powerfull?

  • no,my telescope is not powerfull,when the camera attach to the telescope,

    your can only see some bright DSO(m45,m31,m42...and some Globular Cluster)through the camera's viewfinder

    ,and most of them are Black&white...

    you can google "Astro photography image processing"

  • no,i didn't use FF/FR

  • You can't "ZOOM" u can only "FOCUS",you need focus your camera on a bright star first,u can do that manually or via astro software.
