Power at prime focus?Posted By Joe McBride |
Hi David, I take the f.l. of the telescope in inches and divide by 2 to get a ballpark figure. Also you could take the f.l. in mm and multiply by .02 to get a little more exact.

Comet BradfieldPosted By Joe McBride |
Hi All, I was looking at GUIDE7 and it has Linear up at about 11 deg at 6:15 EDT here in MI., and Bradfield is lower yet but farther North. I hope to get up and take a look at them this morning. Linear is about 2 deg East of the red star TX Psc or 19. It is the Eastern most star in the Western Fish.

Yup! Pretty, but too much like Violets. They end up everywhere.

Celestron Schmidt Newtonian??Posted By Joe McBride |
Hi Robert, I have one that was made in 83. It is an orange tube version. I think am the second owner.

M13, M57, Veil, Open Cluster, Neat...Posted By Joe McBride |
Hi Paul, I like #7 8) . As for #10 well I had problems a few years back with Racoons. While sitting at the guide scope taking a photo the babies or little ones would crawl all over me looking for a hand out. The first couple of times was really scarry. Then it got to the point that they would not leave until fed. So at the end of the session I would cover everything up go inside and get a bag of marshmellows, bring it out and feed them. Then through the rest of the night you could hear them fighting over the food.

Duplicating SlidesPosted By Joe McBride |
Hi Guys, I have duped slides like this before but it is a little grainy for 35mm. One thin that I do myself though is to make prints from slides by photographing the slide with print film say kodak 100. This also increases some grain but also boosts the color.
Thanks
Joe

How Vignetting Effects Taught Me something about LPosted By Joe McBride |
Hey Man...great shot anyway. That m-51 shot looks just like the ones I use to shoot with Tri-X with an old 12.5" telescope our club used to own.
