Just 100% lights, ie no darks, no flats, no bias or dark darks or other such nonsense

I want to try a bit of solar Will be using a mac 90 with a solar filter need a simple guide to take a few picture's can I use my nikon or use a basic colour cmos camera

Managed to view last night, only lasted 15 mins, before the clouds rolled in, but brilliantly good seeing for those view minutes really bright and the reddest I seen in years

Stepping over the dog, who decided at that moment to stand up, between my legs, and me reaching for support of the dual rig, and it toppled over with me, and taking the full brunt of the 80mm as I fell onto it, catching me in the higher rib cage, very luckily no damage to scope, but did end up with two cracked ribs

And something simple like this will make the dob so much a easier to handle

Decent Barlow, you can cut down on the number of lenses then. 4 would be more than enough, oh, and go for the 8"

Yes, its the Baader Hyperion Barlow, cheers for the info. I have a 5mm X-cell, so will try that out first at some point, but do like the Hyperions

Quick question, I have the 2.25 barlow, how well will they work with a Hyperion 24 and 17mm lens Cheers I'm considering getting either a 10 or 5mm, or would that be too much mag

Thank you Andy, rawtherappe look rarther intresting

What free NEF to Jpeg converters options are there for win 10 Cheers Frank

Pretty much most of my kit has breen brought second hand from this forum, and have had no problems When selling off items I then want to pass on to fund other items, I drop the price from what I paid for it, and some have had bargins, would rather someone made use of it, than end up just gathering dust or rust I just wish peeps that want to sell stuff I want, not do it so often, my wish list is already long enough

Check Astroboot

Frankincense is a natural anti bacterial and anti viral agent

They have toned it down abit, use to be sold as Balkan 181

This will sort you out, you can keep it in the frezzer, it doesn't freeze, and comes out thickish, ps, it has quite a kick, https://www.thedrinkshop.com/item/1700/balkan-bajika-vodka-176

And another local, Im nr Somerton

I have a choice between a Tamron 70-300 F4.5.6 or a Sigma 70-300 f4.5.6 Is there much difference, which would be the better choice

A little zoom, Nikon 28-100mm f/3.5-5.6

Havn't seen a clear night in ages, my fault for getting a new scope
