    Can you post a photo showing how you attached the camera body to the focuser ?
  2. Cornelius Varley
    It might be better to start a new thread in the appropriate equipment section.

    Have you tried using Stellarium/Stellariumscope without selecting pc-direct on the handset ? Not all planetarium programmes will control the mount if the pc-direct mode is selected.

    You asked the same question in this thread

    It could be a compatibility problem with Win 10 64 bit. I've just tried to install Nexremote 1.7.22 and got the same error message.

    The updated usb driver can be found on the Celestron Neximage 5 support page here

    Many video tutorials on Youtube

    OK. The RGB mono images represent the values of red, green and blue in a colour image as gray scale mono images. In the image processing software these gray images are combined into a single image in the red, green and blue channels. Once the separate channels are aligned the colour image is created.

    Are you trying to create a colour image from a single monochrome image or combining separate mono images taken through RGBL filters to produce a colour image ?

    Does your laptop use an AMD processor? There are reports that the neximage and amd are not compatible.

    Both do much more than just capture video.
  12. Cornelius Varley
    Have you tried Sharpcap or Firecapture ?

    Synta owns Celestron and Skywatcher (many of Celestron's smaller telescopes historically were manufactured by Synta), but not Bresser. Bresser are owned by JOC (Guangzhou Jinghua Optics & Electronics ) who also own Explore Scientific.

    jnook86 hasn't visited SGL since Jan 2013 so you might not get a reply.

    It might be better posting this in the beginners imaging section rather than in a blog.

    In the long term it would probably be easier/cheaper to purchase a s/h dslr.

    The Leica M7 is a 35mm rangefinder camera, correct ?. I am not sure how you could accurately focus the camera, either using prime focus or afocal imaging, without being able to see the image seen througj the telescope.

    Are these zoom binoculars ? If so you should avoid them.
  20. Cornelius Varley
    I recognised it from a similar post

    Towa probably made it and was sold under various names including Danubia Ret 50 and Revue. The Saturn 50 looks more like a Skywatcher/Celestron 114/900 Newtonian. The Towa design is Jones-Bird 114/1000 and has a couple of unusual features. an optical window supporting the secondary mirror instead of spider vanes and a built in finderscope.
  22. Cornelius Varley
    It is not a Danubia Saturn 50. The Danubia Saturn 50 is a 114/900 Newtonian, The Towa telescope in the photograph is a 114/1000 Jones-Bird design.
  23. Cornelius Varley
    Does the photo show all that you bought ?
  24. Cornelius Varley
    Mmm, probably not. Also sold under the brand names of Towa and Revue.

    A quick search on google brings this one up Danubia RET50 . It has an aperture of 114mm and a focal length of 1000mm. The optical tube is much shorter than its focal length suggests that it has a spherical mirror and a corrector lens built into the focuser to correct the spherical aberrations and achieve the 1000mm focal length. The optical design is known as a Jones-Bird telescope.
