dunno why its b&w lol - i think i converted it from .cr (canon)? but when i stack them its worked out ok - dss and siril must handle. this was a 30 second exposure at 50mm on a crop sensor when i was trying to work out if it was even tracking stars look pretty round to me

ok i just had 45 mins clear ish skies. i boosted my tripod legs to max, bit wobbly but ok...and polar aligned pretty nicely (if i do say so myself) in about 2 mins. i was attempting a brigh star alignment when the clouds came. after watching another video, i'll try a 3 star alignment on ones i know best maybe orion. tbh im just happy polar alignment didn't seem as bad as i feared. at least as far as i got.

hey ty so much for that. yeah, its expensive and im trying to be cheap as i spent my cash on a gti rather than just a tracker ill have to see how i got on, only got the gti couple days ago and of course its been cloudy ever since. maybe polar alligning won't be too bad....

hope its ok to ask here. after tearing down my gti at the end of the night - should i loosen or tighten the clutches? also, unless im missing something, i need to limbo to use the polar scope to align?
