DSI's M42 in black&white

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo
Taking lil' baby steps here...
REAL-LIFE issues sure take a toll in one's time...

I went back to a previous session I had recorded and decided to see if anything good could come out of it...

Besides it's limitations, this little camera (DSI) has "some" potential, but it will sure take a good amount of time for people to realize how to unleash it... (not a 1,2,3 deal)


Anyways, this Forum is about sharing, and that what we'll do... wink

Clear skies to all!

Refractor Focuser Tube Extension... WHERE/HOW?

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo
Quick question to my fellow refractor gurus... wink
As I was trying to test my newly acquired ED80, I tried to set up my DSI camera on it, without a diagonal, and found out that I cannot reach focus. (focuser tube too short, looks like needs an extension)

If any of you have found this problem, could you tell me how did you fix it? did you buy/made an extension for your tube?


Thank you for your attention, and clear skies! 8)

Sorry to hear about this...
I too add my best wishes to Tom for a prompt and quick recovery. I surely hope this is not as serious as it seems...

Nikon D70, tips-hints, anyone?

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo
Guys, my wife surprised me with a D70 as a gift yesterday! (man, do I love her!) 8)
Do any of you have any experience with it, and could you give me some pointers as to what to get, what to do and NOT to do as far as DSO shooting? or maybe some links?

I still need to get me a remote control for it, a T-Ring, and down the road an IDAS LPS Filter...


Thank you for your attention, and clear skies! wink
