  1. Was able to view 4 bright dots around Jupiter last month, Stellarium mobile phone app informed me they were moons! The Baader neodymium filter worked well for the moon and am able to take photos of it with the Canon T3i dslr camera. Need to figure out long exposure photography stuff, but having fun with it.
  2. Hello from a fellow newbie. Watching youtube videos has been helpful for me as well as reading as many forum posts as possible.
  3. Placed an order with FLO today, some items are backordered, and a friend gave me his Canon EOS T3i DSLR camera to try out with the Baader adapters ordered.
  4. Tried the cell phone app to see what was around and visible. Will check out the computer version!
  5. Seems that for a starter trying to view things, the Baader Hyperion 8-24mm Mark IV Zoom Eyepiece with Hyperion Zoom Barlow Lens is the "bees knees" to learn with various viewings. Looks like I also missed out on the November-December sales, too. The focal ratio is f/10, so learning about those limitations, but for starting out in the hobby this seems to be good, especially with the motorized mount.
  6. Hello, I am a n00b, trying to learn as much as I can about this hobby. Have a Celestron Nextar 5se and in the suburbs north of Richmond, Virginia. Have tried looking at things with the stock 25mm eyepiece at the end of the driveway and quickly realized that I'll have to upgrade that eyepiece and scoot out to the boonies for less light pollution. Excited to learn more about what is possible with this telescope!
