  1. Hello, I am a photographer with over forty years experience (now retired) BUT very little knowledge in astrophotography! So I am looking for some advice from you please.

    I am using an Olympus OMD EM1x & EM1Mkll with a 300mm f4 mounted to the Sky-Watcher Star Adventure 2i.

    1. I have now realised I need a guide scope to allow longer exposures so are looking at a 30mm f4 (120mmFl) or should I go up to a 50mm (180/200mmFl)?
    2. Is it worth the extra for the ZWO ASI 120mm mini-S which is USB3.0 and twice the fps over the 120mm mini USB 2.0 or would I not notice any benefits with my setup?

    Any advice & constructive criticism welcomed.

    I have attached a copy of my first attempt which has inspired me greatly!

    Single image processed in LR & PS. 300mmf4, 1600 ISO, 120sec.
