  1. One last question - Would it work with the asi224 camera ? and how do you fit a filter into f using a camera - does it screw into the t2 adapter?
  2. Would the Optolong L-eNhance therefore be the best option?
  3. Hi, does anyone have any recommended LP filter for EAA/ visual use in urban areas I’m considering the Astronomik UHC or a Badder moon and sky glow filter - any suggestions welcome https://www.rothervalleyoptics.co.uk/astronomik-uhc-visual-deep-sky-filters.html https://www.firstlightoptics.com/light-pollution-reduction/bneodymium-1.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIrPKeyvq0gwMVUKSDBx0Lpg-2EAQYASABEgL5yfD_BwE
  4. Hi would anyone recommend any high quality (the best) LP filter for urban EAA with my asi224Mc camera and a Startravel 102? Any help much appreciated. Thanks:)
  5. got it thanks , focus is now perfect, however the screw doesn't seem to tighten enough for the lens to stay put it is still turning is that right?
  6. morning Has anyone had any issues with the zwo 224, i have connected mine to my laptop and tested its working this morning but it seems out of focus in the house? I've not yet connected it to my scope is this normal? The lens is clean so cannot see why it would be so out of focus - especially for objects on the other side of the room. any help would be appreciated.
  7. Perfect - thanks everyone much appreciated 👍🏼
  8. Got it ! 🙈thanks everyone however it doesn’t seem to move, any tips for getting it off??
  9. I’ve unscrewed the whole thing see below - the t ring in the left is still too big - should I also remove the black inner ring ?
  10. Be removed the small lens but the t ring far left in the picture seems too big and doesn’t fit
  11. The t mount - not attached to the lens ? Sorry o don’t understand The t ring is too loose when not attached to the lens
  12. Hi some advice please - 🙏 m trying to mount the asi224 to my diagonal and I’ve attached the T2 adapter- should there be a small gap ? And what is the small acre for please ? As I can’t seem to see it has any purpose???
  13. What about getting into EAA - much simpler than AP and a fraction of the price - wise have a startravel 102 refractor on the AzI GTI and a zwo ASI 224 camera - very simple, portable and enjoyable
  14. My tripod is steel so very substantial - the 130 is 4k I think so about ok I’d say
  15. Thanks interesting you would chose the 102 , might thoughts also
  16. But is it better ? sounds to me just like more maintenance for very little difference
  17. How would the startravel 102 compare in terms of optics to the Skywatcher Explorer 130PDS - similar price point but is it a better better as a 6” f/5
  18. Love this idea of the collaboration witht the WhatsApp group - wish we had something similar here in Lancashire
  19. Getting into EAA bosun21 ? Fantastic be keen to swop some ideas at some point
  20. Exactly the reason I opted for EAA - nice and simple set up and loads of enjoyment with out post processing data
