Hi Guys, I am hoping you can help with this problem, 1st I am retired so I'm an oldie, on top of which I have
a severe injury to my spine, which causes the inability to crank my neck to the angle required to align Polaris.
Very new, I have perhaps 32 days of experience, which amounts to roughly 1 night with clear skies. (Scotland)
I have had the time to look up alternatives to this align Polaris problem.
Which I hope you will be able to help me with.
Gear... Sky Adventurer Pro 2i, Camera Nikon D800, Lens 400mm usable about max 320mm, in my haste to become Pro in a few days I also bought a Telrad Planet finder sort of thing, it has built-in bull rings with a dot centre,
software... Apple Ipad 10", my moby, and a number of apps.
Question.. How can I align Polaris without using the built in eye scope, and without paying £300 for a camera (QHY Polemaster Electric Polar Scope ).?
Huge thanx for your input.
Kind Regards
Gary
