What can the Skywatcher Evostar ED80 do for me?
Tums replied to MattJenko's topic in Getting Started With Imaging
Hi Folks, after a little Help, if you don't mind. Last night I had my first go at trying to get some images of M31, had My Canon 700d ,set on 'Bulb', 800 ISO, using an intervalometer to do 20sec exposures. I know this is only a very short time in 'image taking' but my 'Polar Alignment' isn't good, and I start 'Startrailing' after this. Here is an example of last nights pics, not very good at all, I know. Even after trying to 'Process' something better. So, is the fact you guys get such good images, down to 'good PA' , so you can get long exposures?? Or is there other things I should be doing with my 'Settings. Any advice gratefully received. -
Here's my ticket to clearer skies, well unless there's a dust storm of course.

Hi Matt, and all ED80 owners, (and those thinking of buying one) Only just come across this thread, and have to say, there are some fantastic images here, taken with this brilliant scope. I'm afraid these light nights, are very frustrating, and I can't wait for dark winter nights to come back. Sorry all you Solar lovers. I have to say this thread,is very inspiring, I'm only dabbling with imaging at the moment, using a Canon 1200D and more recently a 700D, I'm in the progress of saving for a ZWO Asi120 mm, which means, lots more things to learn. Anyway here are a few of my images. Good and bad!!.but I really love this hobby/Pastime, and look forward to learning more from this thread in the future. Cheers everyone , Clear skies. -
