  8. OK I've decided I'm saving up for a skywatcher explorer 150p eq3 GOTO, then "borrow" my dads nikkon d3200

      I'm not really set on the GOTO, just sounds easier to hit a button to go where you want it to. I just had a look and if I don't go for the eq-3 GOTO I can get the eq-5 (without motors), 150p-ds, Cheshire, coma corrector and polar scope for the same price. I'll leave the motor drives until another time. Won't be able to get all this for quite a while though

      Ah fair enough, itll take an extra couple of weeks but I'll go for the 150p-ds eq-3 GOTO instead. Is there any extras I'll need (apart from the coma corrector)

      Can I just buy the 150p and then change the focuser to the p-ds version? Or do I need to shorter tube length for DSLR imaging?

  11. daft question...do I stand a chance of seeing M95 with a 3" reflector telescope?

      Aslong as I can see a shape of a galaxy is enough, not expecting to see colour

      Just had a look at Jupiter with it, I saw what I thought could of been 3 of the moons, 2 to the left and 1 to the right. Could of just been a few stars in the distance though
