  1. Basically I want to do EAA, for various reasons (health issues being one of them), but most appealing one is of course to see some details I just can't see with visual observations. The goal for me, is to have a setup, where I set the thing up in 15 minutest (setup alignment, slew to first target with plate solving) and then observe the targets on a laptop or a tablet for 15 minutes making short 15-30 second exposures and live stacking them. Then I want to move to the next target. Maybe I would want to share the "live stacked final image" with friends, but I definitely don't want to do any post image processing. Since I already own a scope I first thought I would get a used dslr on ebay and attach it to the scope. Then I stumbled upon various post here of people saying focus can't be achieved with a dslr on that scope, I definitely don't want to perform a surgery on my scope , so I thought what about a dedicated astro cam. I don't want to buy something just to find out I can't focus.
  2. Hello there. I have the same scope Star Discovery 150p on an alt-az wifi mount. I read about the problem of not achieving focus with a dslr for this scope. I am pretty new to all this and am wondering if the same problem exist if you use a dedicated astrophotography camera with this scope? What would be a good dedicated astro camera for this scope? Thanks for all the answers.
