rawhead Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 A new piece of kit arrived yesterday. Something I’ve wanted for ages. A motor corrector for my Tal 2 mount. No longer tied to the mains, no longer tied to solar tracking. Liberated at last. Clear skies too, gave it a try last night and it worked a treat. Unguided 10 minute exposures here I come (Ha!) :rolleyes:Bought from APM in Germany. Ordered on Tuesday, arrived Friday morning. Fantastic service. Well impressed and would use again (especially when (if) the exchange rate improves)Some pics: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyH Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Nice one Jon. I know you've been on the look-out for a motor corrector for ages now. Exchange rate is pants with the euro just now and to be honest, I don't think it'll change for the better, any time soon. I've heard these units run warm which, actually means you've got a free hand warmer too.......sorted. I like the variable rate too, which means the motor drive can be fine tuned for ultimate precision.Насладитесь новой игрушкой Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyH Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Oh and yes, APM are a very efficient bunch. I've bought various stuff from them, over the years.Cheers,Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
