Hi, it's a EVOLUX 62ED .9 Reducer/Flattener. Can you   remind me  how to work out the 55mm back  focus  please.

Tim

Hi thanks for the info. The telescope is the  Sky-watcher EVOLUX 62ED which has a ff on it. But I do have a filter draw on.

Good evening, I'm  having problems with imaging, here is a photo of andromider. If you look at the  corners you can see, that the stars are funny  shape I'm  not guidering so could this be the problem. I do have a guider camera,  which is the ZWO 120 and the svbony guidescope. But not shore how to set it up, the mount is the Celestron  AVX mount and I'm  using a dslr camera, which is the Canon 60d mod

Hi everyone,

           Can you tell me what is the best time to start imaging and what is a good telescope for  astrophotography.

   Tim

Hi everyone,

Can anyone  tell me if you can use the focus  button in the asiai, with a dslr camera please. I'm using a asiair mini with a Canon eos 60d camera. Being new to astrophotography, I'm  still learning about all of this astrophotography  stuff.

Hi,

Can any one please help me, I'm trying to connect my Celestron avx mount to the asiair mini. I have been reading and I get the impression that  you have to use a USB lead from the handcontroler to the asiair. Or is there  another way of contacting it.

  Tim

Will try tonight in changing the date round and see what happens thanks again for   all your help  most appreciated thanks.

Hi everyone 

Can anyone help me please. I have  just got a new mount, a Celestron avx I put in the date, time and city which is London, but  it didn't ask for the Latitude or the Longitude ever. I'm also  using a asiair mini, so is the mount using the latitude and longitude from the asiair. Then it asked me to do a star alignment that's when the problem started one of the stars I know which was Capella this star came up as one of the alignment stars, so it told me to press enter which I did it started to slew, but the wrong way, it was slewing to  the west all the time.

  Tim

I have now got my asiair mini working. Thanks to everyone for their help.

Tim

Sorry  to ask all these questions, but can any one tell me how to download  the files to my mac computer and formatting as well   I got the asiair mini, and the instructions are not very good 

Tim

Hi everyone,

Just got it to work properly, it turned  out all I had to do was adjust the aerial, and now it works.

Tim

Thanks Martin will give it a go.

Hi everyone, can  anyone  help me, getting  very  frustrated. I have  just got a zwo asiair  mini to use, the problem is that  can't connect to wifi I can connect my camera, but can't  use the app as I can't  get  a connection, as it's  keeps on telling me  no Internet. I use a Galaxy  Tab S5e.

  Tim

Hi,

  Just wanted to say thanks for the  help, I will look more into this,  but thanks again.

   Tim

Hi, Can any one tell me please if you can just use a dslr camera, which is a Canon eos 60d with the ZWO asiair mini and how would you  connect it. And do you need to sync it.  Also will you be able to  plate solving and pola aline, or would I need to have a guidscope. I will be using a ioptron skyguider pro, so just a startracker for this.

  Tim

The camera  would be a Olympus em1 micro four thirds my budget will be £600

Morning  all,
