Hello I hope you are still frequent visitor to the SGL website, because I am trying to align the reticule in my polarscope. The reticule came out when I unscrewed the eyepiece lens, the whole thing was out of focus and couldn't be adjusted with the grub screws. It had stuck itself to the eyepiece-lens with the nasty oil they install at the factory). Anyway, how did you do get it back in the right orientation? Is it all about the transit of Polaris and certain dates/times? Regards, Steve

From Burrough Hill in Leicestershire, June 2013. Canon 550D with a Tair 3S 300mm lens at f/4.5 mounted on a Skywatcher EG3 Pro Synscan. This is a combination of 20 frames, 2 mins each. Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker software. The lens is from an old Russian "Fotosniper" kit, and it has fantastic optical properties; very sharp even wide open. It has M42 mount so an adaptor is needed to mount it to the Canon. -

Gone retro with this - Pentax Spotmatic (film SLR) with Takumar 50mm f/1.4 - 1 hour exposure. The firework was luck, went off just as I was about to end the shot. -

Got shaper focus by using 20mm eyepiece and hand held photography with Canon kit lens ( 18-55mm). For some reason, the focus is not so good when attaching the Camera to the scope with a T-mount adaptor. -
