Yes phone will do do panorama's but not 360,i could stitch i suppose.

Has anyone got a good how on this subject please. Ive watched a few YouTube videos and either the software needed is not available or some other issue. I have a Samsung s20fe and it wont take a 360 panorama so need other software for that also. my back yard has a few trees and nearby buildings that get in the way so after 18 months of imaging I have finally decided to make a custom landscape.

what do you guys prefer and why ?

The other consideration is the USB printer cable is a looser push fit. Whereas the USB serial cables connect to the handset port - with a click in connection that is less likely to get pulled out in usage. This was my main concern ... i have been on usb for the last year but did start out on Eqmod......wanted the general consensus .

what's peoples preference and why for controlling sky watcher mounts like the EQ6R pro mount, EQmod cable or USB printer type cables...

6 weeks since i have had a clear night and counting.........located east coast lincs.no end in sight this week either....anyone elsewhere in the uk had any clear nights... anyone want to buy some astro gear....🤔

ok no worries i just needed an extension tube to get focus.

Ok so after seeing some great reviews of the new QHY5III715C camera i thought i would give it a go on the moon and maybe a couple of the larger planets as i have a 2.5 powermate to bump up the FL. im just a bit unsure as how to set it up as normally i have a large sensor poseidon C on the back of the scope. i had a quick go outside this evening but could not even see vega,moon was too low to try and get a focus. i just had the 2 inch to 1.25 adapter screwed into the scope and the camera slid into this ,i may try in the day tomorrow as i got nowhere....please advise where i am going wrong. and yes i do realise this is not an ideal scope for planetary work ,i do plan to get one i just wanted to do some lunar and some observing as i seem to have some clear skys when the moon is out .....

no worries i think on youtube maybe the man to ask .lukimoto ,,,i know he uses it.

if im honest i have never got round to trying it ,looks good quality though....

Ok so i have 140 3 min subs all taken using IRUV/Cut filter but somehow NINA thought some of them used L extreme ,this was incorrect ,now when i run WBPP i end up with 2 separate RGB files one for the L extreme and one for the UVIR/Cut ......i want them to be all as one single RGB please help...

Lovely

wow some very nice images. are all these taken with the 200pds .your juper and saturn are superb. can i ask why you replaced the focuser ,i plan to use the ZWO EAF and player one Poseidon c pro .APS-C plus a ZWO filter.

Anyone had any experience imaging with the SW 200pds at its native FL . good points and bad and also best coma corrector for this scope rated at F5.

thank you
