hi with only a few dark night time hours available in the summer months i am not sure what gain settings or exposure time i should use for the crescent nebula as i am new to cmos cameras as anyone any ideas?

Thanks for the replys powering the mount on then waiting 20 seconds then pluging handset connector back in did the trick all working okay now.

Hi, I have a problem when connecting my mount to to pc using the cable slot from the bottom of my handset through my new atolla usb powered hub,the following error model number could not be read always comes up and after turning off everything and back on again it connects okay and is fine.I am wondering why it does this everytime I first turn it on anyone any ideas?

Yep already soughted it out with shop.

Hi has anyone had faulty spacers when purchasing their new camera?I had the main spacer that was on the camera on 1 side tapered not level and I thought I had cross threaded it at first.

Thanks for your reply that would be a great idea and I think a lot of buyers would appreciate that.

Rother valley optics horizon line of refractors come with a test certificate you would think you would at least get a copy of the original test of your telescope after all you paid for it.

has anyone had similar problems?

Hi everyone bought my Skywatcher 80ed esprit Pro Refractor after many delays Refractor cames with no es Reid certification which I paid £75 for in the included purchase price. I BOUGHT FROM FLO emailed them weres mycertificate for my telescope no reply the same day I am nothappy with their service and will return the telescope for a full refund if no reply.

Hi thanks white dwarf for reply went for the Skywatcher 80ed esprit in the end.

My current refractor telescope is a skywatcher 72ed pro.

just wondering if triplet in theory better then i will buy that scope but in practice things might change.

Thanks for the replys whats the best way to put a starsense as well as a guidescope on the skywatcher as i would buy one seems lack of mounts the problem?

Hi i am looking to buy my next refractor telescope but cant decide between skywatcher 80 spirit or rvo 72ed horizon has any members bought these 2 refractors to tell me the pros n cons of each refractor thanks.

Hi after receiving my Skywatcher 72ed pro flattener I couldn't get prime focus.I contacted the astronomy shop I bought it from and they said Skywatcher have sent faulty batches out with lenses the wrong way around.I wasted most of my holiday trying to find out what was wrong.I ended up on the last 2 days of my holiday when clear skys came around tried a few spaces which cured the problem. I cant believe Skywatcher could let this go out undetected at £185 it isn't cheap.I am now waiting for a replacement at the end of the month least my Svbony spacers bought on ebay a while ago saved the day.
