  1. Looks clear tonight, too tired for a scoping session - will have a quick peek with the bins instead.

      Moon looks awesome again tonight. (South Wales)

  2. Hoping to catch a late glimpse of the Jupiter-Venus conjunction, bins at the ready!

  3. Should be a nice clear night to practice auto guiding :-)

  4. For all its worth, here's my setup...an Evostar 120 with a ST80 guidescope all on a slightly overloaded but resilient EQ5 mount.
  5. From the album: Photos from Bury

    Produced from 10 90 sec sub frames. ISO 800, Nikon D200.
  6. Thanks :-). The EQ5 mount is really an excellent mount for the money. I mark the positions on the dovetail mount and counterweight bar to speed up the balancing. Dan.

    From the album: My set up

    My current set up... SW Evostar 120, Nikon D200, ST80 guidescope on a SW guidescope mount, Synguider, EQ5 pro with extension pier, Baader fringe killer and SW light pollution filters. Solar filter added to lens cap. Altogether a good (albeit slightly overloaded) system to learn AP.
