Gawd now your at it !!!

Hey not a bad image though Greg especially through the Canon.

So you have sun now then do you ???? not cloud and rain

[russ]

Thats a good start Greg. It's bleddy hard to get right....i can't!

And the DSLR is supposed to be the harder way to go.....so nice job.

Nice one Greg!

Thinking about getting one of these PST's when funds allow.

I've been at it with the PST all afternoon....Very difficult to get this one right..

I was about to set up the lappy and the Toucam but it was just starting to dip below the trees..So i'll have a go tomorrow..

I read KK's post about having to over expose the image...He wasn't kidding It was off the scale :shock:

[geppetto]

I really really really really really want one of those

That's rubbish Greg, I think you need to sell it off very

cheap, to a person of more mature years

I keep failing to get anything decent and as you say, Greg, it gets hot - particularly with a toucam where I was under cover of a towel to try to get to see the computer screen while attempting (but failing) to get focus!

So if you get the toucam to work can you do a step-by-step guide for the beginner please??

My wife came back from shopping to be confronted with me huddled under a sheet... I think she thought I had totally lost it

I think one of these is on the cards...

I'll post my frustrations with the toucam later, Helen..

[Helen]

Thanks Greg! I need a shield for the computer too! Perhaps my husband can build me something - he's just built me a dolly for the NS8

The PST is a great little scope for visual, but imaging is can be difficult, and very frustrating, until you 'get to grips' with it.

'Stick' with it, it will 'come right' for you, and you'll be really 'chuffed' with it then.
