Thank you tried to download the app to my galaxy tab 3 10.1 tablet while waiting for to arrives today and comes back that the app is not compatible with this devise

AN update my s50 is due tomorrow fingers crossed

Just to let you all know Order for the seestar S50 confirmed from FLO just sit back and wait, the boss said i can get a planetary scope later when finances build up

Managed this with a 100-400mm lens as best as i can get it

thank you very kindly for both your comments seems i am listening to the wrong people around me so that's why i joined this very knowledgeable forum

If a long f/length is good for planets e.g refractor scope of 3.5-4" a friend said why not use a nikon P1000 camera with a f/length of 3000mm and takes photos in raw format. or a 10" newt or dod as i am thinking of getting the Seestar S50 also heard that the dwarf labs are supporsed to be bringing out a dwarf 3 out next year

just checked i was on f18 no wonder it was a black photo will try again tomorrow too hot and tired to go back out

just come in after trying to image saturn no luck saw it through the vf and live view took 15" image iso 100 and a black photo. is that a 127 mak have seen them complete with a mount

Just had a board meeting with the SWMBO management and the terms are now get a telescope for planets and get the se50 when it becomes easier to buy due to she wants the garden and kitchen re vamping . so what's the type of scope for planets a dob or newt or a frak .

i took it up to 1600 and it came out like snowed out

Hi I have just tonight had a go at sky imaging with my sigma 18-35mm lens settings were iso 100/ s/s 15"/ 3.2 apt bortle 7 sky .used a eos 2000D of the wifes . the last one neighbour's night light came on

Thank you very kindly for that comment, I will keep looking for used items seem to get more for your money

Just a quick note to let you know that i have just been notified that all the scope and gear has been sold will keep on loooking

some one is selling one complete with HEQ5 Pro Synscan mount and extras Williams Dielectric diagonal, illuminated Finderscope, Maplin Regulated power supply, TMB SW 6mm eyepiece, Meade eyepieces - 25, 20, 17, 12, 6 mm, Williams 20 mm 66 degree Binoviewer, ED 25mm, 3.8mm and 30 mm fully coated eyepieces, 2 inch filter set (7), 1.25 inch filter set (12 filters), 2 x ED Barlow lens, 3x TeleVue Barlow lens, AE Collimator, Neutral density filter, light pollution and nebula filters, USB to Serial adaptor, LED night vision items, instruction manuals for synscan and mount, lockable aluminium telescope case for £1000 but he as someone viewing this evening but the person does not want it i have the a chance to buy it

reading all of everybody's good comment 's would this scope satisfy my needs Skywatcher Equinox 120 mm pro flourite ED apo refractor

The scope comes on a celestron advanced gt mount with a payload of 30 pounds and the scope is 8pounds in weight

I Understand that bit. But i still have "L" plates and stabilisers on in this situation

Cosmic Geoff this is were i get confused long focal for planets and short for nebula imaging I thought it might be the other way round .

Sorry typo error i meant deep sky nebula imaging. you mentioned a C^6 is this more suitable for me as i hav just seen on an other shop that they have got a second Hand Celestron C6 XLT Advanced GT Schmidt Cassegrain Telescope for £ 749.00 would I have enough money left over to cover all the imaging hardware and cables to keep the BOSS happy or stay with my dslr

Would be easier to take a short video of a planet instead of a load of single frames to keep down the shutter count

I am very grateful for your time and patience answering my questions my back garden is south facing sun all day from 11:30 till it sets over the opposite houses across the tenfoot i have seen Saturn through my Tasco 114/500 Galaxsee when i first got it in the early 90's but thinks happen and it got put away in the garage and forgotten about till a few weeks ago now I have got the urge to do it while I can .

Yes it is an ART series lens my other small lens is a kit lens 28-80 3.55.6 it is an 58mm apt were as the sigma is 72mm apt
