A few pictures give opinion please.

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo

Rick, did you film all these shots with your camcorder? and then took shots off your TV screen?

That's quite some work, but it payed off... nicely done, as not many people have approached "imaging" this way...

Of course you'd be better off with a computer and a webcam, but your results are not bad at all considering the equipment used...

Personally, I would NOT use your equipment for planetary imaging, as it requires "STACKING", but for Lunar imaging it seems adequate...


Clear skies! 8)

Orion 80 ED APO

True David, true... I sure do love the "little" scope...
I do know that Skywatcher is already offering a 120mm ED APO, so who knows, maybe a larger one could be in THE WORKS... wink
