DiscoStu Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Hello everyone, my names Andrew and i come from Cambridge.I've been reading bits and bobs from this forum and thought it was about time i'd register. I bought a scope as a present for someone (Nexstar 80 slt ) and had a few goes with it a few months ago and have been hooked since. So i decided to buy myself a cheap scope and got a Skywatcher 130p Heritage, i bought a range of filters and eyepieces and now about to buy an eq3-2 mount with motors, plus ive managed to borrow a canon 40d dslr for imaging.Hopefully ill be able to take some shots where you can make out more than a blur. Im a complete beginner so its all going to be trial and error and thats where sgl will come handy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
