Picking up an Orion Sirius tomorrow --I'm super pumped!

[bokchoy ninja]

Based on many peoples' advice here I've decided to return my star adventurer and instead am picking up an Orion Sirius EQ-G mount, which all-around I expect to feel much more substantial and accurate. I'm looking forward to bringing my 180mm focal length lens and dslr out for some widefield shots this upcoming new moon, and eventually picking up a small refractor for those hard-to-reach DSOs. An autoguider is on the radar but will have to wait until my wallet recovers.

Overall just really excited to be getting into a hobby that let's me combine two of my passions: photography and science.

Enjoy it and have fun.
