  1. Finally got a chance to try out my Optolong lXtreme filter,and very impressed with it. Just over 1 1/2 hours at 120 sec subs,lights only, will look forward to more time with it. 102 ed, 533mc pro, 0.8 reducer.
  2. Good shout...would it be suited to the 533mc?
  3. Also have to mention...have an obsy😳,
  4. Maybe need to give more info..I have a filter drawer ,Idas lp filter,uvir filter,127 mak and SW 200 ota. Thought about a asiair,but really like Nina with the laptop. Also maybe upgrade my 102 ed, really don't know.
  5. Hello,I have a few quid burning a hole in my pocket,around £1000,what do I really need. I have a nice 102 ed frac, an eq6r-pro, a 533 mc pro that I like,power box, all the hardware need for AP, nice laptop, what would you spend the money on. Used gear is always my first stop. Paul.
  6. Just a quick 3 min sub, really just for the record of seeing it.
  7. Not a bad day here today,so thought i would get a pic.Not ideal gear for imaging solar but,as my 244mc has stopped working had to use the 533mc pro.
  8. Probably why I haven't had any 😉
  9. My roof is quite heavy, and with having a dodgy back and not getting any younger thought I would make life a bit easier. VID_20220612_172454.3gp
  10. Very nice, what caused the bright star like in the image.
  11. Some times the dial can move slightly if not tightened enough.
  12. I am in the same position,I contacted FLO and as my camera was out of warranty they couldn't help and suggested I send it direct to ZWO.
  13. Hi all, i am really struggling to get my flats to work, so when i dont use them,or use them i get to see the dust bunnys in my frames. Any ideas where they actually are ie,on the sensor ,the protective window,on the filter Any input would be great. Paul
  14. Does the end red ring screw off.... the cam may screw in with the nose piece removed. Just looked again is the red ring threaded?

  16. Always liked this glob visually but never imaged it until now. 102ed 533mc and around 1 hour of 25 sec subs.
  17. Quick capture of the nova in galaxy ngc 4647....the larger galaxy is m60.
  18. Captured over a couple of nights,around 5 hours and hope to add more tonight. 102ed, 533mc pro.
  19. Taken over a couple of nights,around 5 hours total. 180 sec subs,only light's 102ed and 533mc pro.
  20. Was imaging the same but only got 1.5 hours thanks to a windows update..... Nice for such a short time.
  21. Got this over a couple of nights,all lights no flats ect and had my first successful meridian flip. 102 ed and 533 mc pro.
  22. After a night of imaging got up around 3 to switch everything off and couldn't resist, finish off with m13. Around 1.5 hours of 30 sec subs with 102ed and 533mc pro,really should have shorter subs so as not to blow the core,hopefully will sort out the flats to use with it. .
