Eyepiece Projection

[warpout]

After an earlier post, I am thinking of investing in an eyepiece projection adapter. I have BST eyepieces which are quite bulky. Will the adapter accommodate these.

The SW variable eyepiece projection adapter accepts eyepieces up to a diameter of 35mm.

When I started with AP, I found that there is a lot of websites that thoroughly explain how to start. Check for example this site. It is also important to learn about image scale and image enlargement. There are good explanations about that in Gerald North's books, like for example "Advanced Amateur Astronomy". Other members would surely be able to recommend other books and sites. Good luck!

Hi, have you considered Webcam AP? I started out recently on this path & have achieved reasonable results from scratch using a SW Supatrak 130 (now Synscan). The Wecams are affordable & if you have a laptop your in business. I have a MS HD Lifecam (adapted). What scope are you using? 

Thanks
