Was packing away and saw the moon over in the corner so just caught a quick snap. Captured with the following, HEQ5 with rowan belt mode and hypertuned Skywatcher 200p Canon R50 Mirrorless Single image and manually moved the mount. -

Only picture captured so far on my skywatcher 200p, switched over to askar 103. Need to get the tilt done and mirrors properly collimated. -

I went with the Askar 103 and 0.8 reducer and was very happy with the first night out. Lack of experience led me to get a 200p with EQ5 mount which sat unused in the shed for the last year, just decided to ditch it all and get the askar and heq5 (used) and was really happy with my first shot. I'm just starting out so this is just my personal experience.

It's not my first but rather second, first one wasn't great, just starting out and wasn't a great night to be out. Object: NGC7000 Date: 14/07/2024 Equipment: Canon R50 (stock), OVL light pollution filter, Askar 103, Askar 52mm guide scope, HEQ5 tuned and rowan belt mod. Exposures: 20 x 6 min subs at 800 ISO Software: Stacked with DSS and processed using Photoshop with RC Astro trial plugins. Sky: Bortle 5 (heading towards bortle 6 with all the new builds....) Scope arrived the day before I took this shot, FLO where legends getting that sorted so quickly!
