Here's mine - not that I get much chance to use it, as sunny ☀️ days seem as rare as clear night skies ? 

?

Lunt now with double stack (definitely a big difference) and TV85 with Baader Herschel wedge. 

I find the Baader zoom works well on the Lunt and also think the Lunt zoom is pretty good as well.  

Excellent write up Mike. I have forbidden myself any new purchases for the near future but maybe when I sell some things I might have a look at one of these ??

Surely not Stu... that's way too competent ???

Finally had chance to put these to a good session ???

Can my high quality iPhone 6 image of the Orion Nebula be considered in your next round please Stu...?

A quality iPhone 6 capture from earlier this year ???

Lovely looking setup Tony, bet the LS80 is pretty spectacular!

Nice to see the TV85 looking so good  

The TV85 just did a tour of the Lake District - probably gets more use than any other except my bins!

The LS80 is pretty stunning - I will get some images eventually ? and post. 

Here is my side by side for solar. 

Lunt LS80 and TV85 with Baader Herschel prism on skytee 2 mount.

Really interesting to compare the views through both.

Mine has no movement so as above I'd talk to your supplier first before attempting to take it apart yourself. 

If the supplier can't fix or replace and it doesn't impact on viewing or tracking then I wouldn't do anything.

Baader 2" back and 2" diagonal is great combination.

Along with upgraded focusser is say best additions I made.

Great idea - lots of port cases that could serve the same purpose - now I'll need to find things to fill them with - oh no!!

2" now in new case and 1.25" plus filters not used anymore really...

Not the range some people have but certainly works well for me at the moment.

Wow - that is a large selection of bins!

I have one reasonable pair and a few cheapo sets in the car, office kitchen drawer!

Really pleased for you!

I made a basic error of knocking my finder out of alignment (didn't realise of course!) and struggled to get 3 star alignment for ages. Frustration built and eventually switched off to start again... Realised my error and got alignment straight away then

I hope you have a great first session
