  1. Many Thanks Marky1973 for your input on my wide field viewing. sorry it’s taken so long to reply but I have spent many evenings looking at posts here on SGL and other web sites regarding the SW150 and SW 80ED and also looked at many videos on collimation and field of view on given targets with each scope. Seems that I would need different scopes and cameras to meet the need for the different targets I would like to image… This is going to be an expenses past time, but I’m keen to get stated on this and have decided to go for the foundation 1st, I don’t want to go backwards in this project so an Skywatcher NEQ6 PRO Synscan along with a SW80ED would get things going

    Think using my 200 and 300 nikon lenses would start the wide field viewing and the ED80 give me a little more power. Guide scope seen ok but Guide cameras seem seem to be a lot more tricky… Colour or Mono…. pix size or list pix size… Mono seems to be best for guiding.. so I’m on the journey these things and some filters and so on as I go along. Once again thanks for the input.. I will go for a faster scope like a SW200PDS later when i save up some more money… 

     

    Kind Regards .. Sam

     

    Will order the Mount and scope after the 10th This month when I get my next pay packet.
