MarkAR Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 Posted by: @Superlunarchick Hi Mark! Wow, so only year this starting up. A truly fantastic and rewarding hobby isn't it?That's when nearly everything goes right, when nearly everything goes wrong is another matter ? ? I think I got lucky with picking my gear secondhand, chap was selling everything but a mount, then after a chat he announced he's selling his AZ-EQ6 as well. Then on top of the Altair 115EDT, cameras and mount, he didn't tell me it included a 250P-DS in the price ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gina Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 That's the way to do it!! ? Great start Mark. I started at the bottom with a cheap Newt bought from the long river site, then found a forum to join and the rest is history, as they say. My first go at imaging was with a webcam. I managed to capture Saturn showing its rings and was "over the moon" ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
