dephelis Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Great image James.I'm itching to get my new EQ5 Pro mount out for a spot of DSO imaging with my Mak/Newt and DMK. The current cloud (London) will give me a chance to get a cable so that I can control it from my PC/Netbook and take some of the chore of drift aligning out of the equation.Damien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majapala Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Very nice! Which mount did you use James? I see you have a few! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesF Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 HEQ5 Pro for this one. I started off this little run of cluster images with the EQ3-2, but it's been really struggling and appears to be getting worse. I now intend to completely strip and rebuild it, perhaps to use as a DSLR imaging platform, but that's a longer-term project.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
