AdAstraPaul Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Hello to all, I'm a beginner had my set up for around 3 months. Starting off second hand before I press the button and spend a fortune. My current set up is an EQ3 mount with RA/Dec motors with a Explorer 150p and a Canon 800d, I know not the best set up due to weight. However, I have been surprised that you can get results with this set up albeit time consuming without go-to functionality, thank goodness for plate solving in APT. Look forward to all your input.My the skies forever be in your favour.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
