Red Dot Finder and Star Hopping
bemak187 replied to Murf26's topic in Getting Started With Observing
Another vote for the RACI. Don't use a red dot any more. Did have one of the Baader Sky surfers which are good but the comfort of the RACI always wins out for me. -
The CPC tripod is 2 inch legs, the feet are just shy of that I think. I had thought about some sort of end caps or maybe some generic rubber feet. The feet come to a point and are conical shaped so just wondered if there was something specific for them. I know some camera tripods have sort of over feet that just slip on. Might be something out there that could be adapted.

Does anyone know if there are rubber feet/covers available from somewhere for the CPC/Heavy Duty Tripod. The newer ones have orange metal feet and as I observe mostly on concrete these aren't ideal as they get scratched and dinged up easily. I know I could get a set of any vibration pads but I wondered if there was anything which could go over and cover the existing metal feet.

For larger SCT focal reducer is a worthwhile item. Never going to have a massive field but it gives more flexibility with FOV.

Next on my list for my 11 inch. Glad to hear they work well.

Yip these look fine.

On my C6 I do the Baader ultra short SCT to T2 and then the Baader 1.25 screwed onto that.
