Phillyo Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Lets say someone gave you £20000 (or equiv currency) to spend on astrophotography equipment. What would be your setup with that budget? I'm thinking something along the lines of 10Micron 1000HPS, tak 106, qhy600m, with 3nm filters, LRGB filters, EFW etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty38 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Mesu, WO GT81, WO FLT120, 2600mm, 2600MC with filters, filterwheels, focusers etc. Add mini pc and powerboxes and it might scrape in around that price. Would definitely do me 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alien 13 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Canon R6 camera with the 400mm f/2.8 lens, with batteries and adapter that leaves me around 4K for the mount but it would need to be ultra lightweight so not sure whats available 😃 Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusted Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 A "tame" gardener/tree surgeon to cut down all the unkempt hedges to my east and south. A crane: To lift my latest and bigger, home made dome to replace the last one. A decent, larger aperture, H-alpha etalon to replace my [very] secondhand PST etalon. A much larger aperture, H-alpha, Lunt blocking filter. A proper, Goto drive box, which actually works. To replace my AWR/ASCOM crap. Which hasn't managed a single Goto in three whole years from new. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbulo Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I don’t know if this counts as astrophotography equipment: Clear and dark skies; a small cottage in a sunny country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of people on here would happily pay 20k for clear and dark skies!! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
