Knight Gazer Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I thought I would sign up after using the site for so much research! I hope to contribute more over the coming months but will be firing questions at you in the meantime.I have had a telescope for about 13yrs (40th B'day present) and have done my fair share of gazing, but I want to step it up bitto Astro-photography (on a budget-ish)I have a Tele Vue Ranger which is great for travelling with a 20mm Tele vue Plossel a Celestron 12.5mm Ultima with a Barlow x2have just ordered a Celestron Omni 6mm (Currys £12.99!) I have a Manfrotto fluid video head which clamps onto railings and frames and a EQ2 which I am thinking about putting a motor on (might just save the money for a better one)Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
