The EQ3 DSO Challenge
HowardHopkinson replied to Stub Mandrel's topic in Getting Started With Imaging
I have the EQ3 Pro Synscan mount on the lightweight tripod. With my ES ED80 and my Canon 60D, I haven't noticed any issues thus far. Obviously, the HEQ5 will be more stable and able to take a significantly greater weight. However, portability was of primary concern to me and that's why I went with the EQ3 pro. -

The Elephant's Trunk nebula(IC1396). 69x90sec light frames 29x dark frames 25x flat frames 50x bias frames Stacked in DSS and processed in PS. I honestly think that up to now, this is probably the best deep sky image I've ever shot. Needless to say, I'm rather pleased with it. -
