Hi!

[Sterrenland]

Long time lurker who has finally joined properly!

Have been doing basic astrophotography since autumn 2019 using DSLRs, camera lenses and a SW Star Adventurer. Am now desparate to upgrade to a SkyWatcher HEQ5 Pro and a SkyWatcher 80ED refractor - but have chosen probably the worst time in recent years to think of upgrading as none of the retailers in the UK seem to have any stock of what I want. I'm looking forward to things picking up just enough for stock to start arriving again, but realise things may not be 'normal' for a very long time.

So, for the time being it's carry on with the DSLR and a certain level of frustration!

Hi Sterrenland,

Sterrenland sounds Dutch. Are you?
I hope you'll soon find those upgrades
you're looking for.

I was born in Belgium, but I'm British and live in the UK! I was struggling to think of a name!
