Nice job. But I have to ask the question ... who on earth suggested to you that a 250DPS would be OK on an EQ3-2 .... ??? OK ... cancel the above , I see that you made a glaring error in the opening sentence of your post.

Birds/Angel's on images but not in 10x live view
Steve Ward replied to TiffsAndAstro's topic in Getting Started With Imaging
I would be inclined to ditch the old lens/adapter combination and head to "MPB" , "Park Cameras" or "Wex Photographic" and get yourself a pre-loved modern Canon fit lens instead , loads of bargains to be had there. -
That'd be an "Americanism" pure and simple , I'm sure they mispronounce our language just for the hell of it ... 😄

5 min video of Sun in UV including the 3 recent X flares

You just need to download "JHelioviewer" and you can access all of NASA's historical SDO data and make your own videos from it ... 😉 -

Steve Ward replied to TiffsAndAstro's topic in Getting Started With Imaging
A little more info would be handy , i.e. camera make and model. Presuming you're talking about previewing images you've just shot on the camera ... ? When you zoom in to 10x you have to scroll around with the navigation button to find small details. The info will be in the instruction book. -
And "Barlow" ... 😉

Well as it's somebody's name I think that's rather petty and schoolyard-like , how would you like folk to start referring to something related to you as Jabba or Neddie rather than your real name ... 😄

1st session of the year! Huge AR in white light
Steve Ward replied to Pete Presland's topic in Imaging - Solar
I wasted ten minutes this morning trying to figure why the view was all fuzzy and washed out with a bright clear sky ... ? Nice coat of condensation on both the Barlow and the objective (both hidden by filters) will do it after a frosty night ... hairdryer to the rescue ... -

Not sure historically , I'll have to have a Google. The biggest I've had the pleasure of witnessing was back in October of 2014 ... 😲
