Hi there,
I have a problem that might not be to others but I van not solve it. I started doing some planetary images with SW Mak 180 Pro and using ASI 120 MC-S camera from ZWO. I made a simple train , i.e 1,25" to 2" reducer, and extention 1,25" delivered with camera giving together 42,5 mm (from the last machined part of the telescope i.e from the Cryford focuser that I added to my Mak). Together with camera back focus of 12,5 mm it is exactly 55 mm. It is working relatively fine so far. I have also tried to put the same train (for moon imagining) on the SW Evostar 72 /420 mm refractor, (as on the picture) but there is no way I could even come close to some focus. Just for info, I have bought thet Evostar for DS ( to work with my canon and ASI 120 MC-S as guder) when my T ring and flttener will arrive. I do not ubnderstand that for testing I could not reach focus with evostar. It has its own great focus as well as camera when used with its wide angle lens.
Thank you in advance -

Hi,
So far I was using Skymax 180 for planetary viewing and imagining. For photography I use ZWO ASI120 MC-S camera. Now I am planning to start with DS imagining. Due to the budget and handling my plan for OTA is to purchase SW EVOSTAR 72 D. (To mount it on EQ5 pro mount I have for max). I already have Canon 600D body. My idea is to use my planetary camera ZWO ASI 120 MC S as guiding camera. I got as a present before ZWO OAG. Now I wonder can I use that OAG for imagining with Evostar 72 or I should buy a guest scope. What would be the best set up for combination: Evostar 72D + canon 600D + ZWO OAG+ASI 120 MC. Thank you folks !

SynscanInit 2
in Getting Started General Help and Advice
Posted
Hi. I have used SynscanInit 2.1 for a year to get basic data for my Sky Watcher SynScan. And it was very useful. By accident my grandson in playing with phone uninstalled it in my Android. I went back to Google store by although it recognised the app name, the application icon is not listed. Tried probably 10:times but can not find app in Google play. Any advice ?
