hes already tried it condension was the problem , proper water coolings the next step but not using water, the stuff hes going to use has a name im not even going to try and spell with my word blindness but its 30 times better at conducting heat than water 😀😀

in WL i find a ND moon filter works wonders with detail of spots it adds to the contrast, im not really into the mechanics im really just here to see the sights and the sheer mightyness of sol even tho i ive picked a bit of the science a long the way im not one to get overloaded with it 😀 charl.

i dont think heat would be a problem with solar as the blocking filters cut it out and with bright images theres not so much noise, but direct sunlight to the camera body my cause something im not quite sure. charl.

ive never try one or own one but who knows may make a difference might clean the image and sharpen a bit by blocking . charl.

If you had only 1 mount, what would it be and why?
xtreemchaos replied to Alan White's topic in The Astro Lounge
After trying most mounts in the skywatcher line ive settled on the middle ground of the HEQ5 which dos me fine it dos the job good I do have a EQ6 but I find its over kill for what I need so my son uses it. charl. -
