Despite ordering weeks apart, including one requiring gst at customs (with duty dec) etc etc both arrived today!
new camera - qhy 163 mono. packaging is much sleeker than my last qhy :thumbsup:
and the new scope - 130mm f7 apo from TS. ive got to say it is bigger than i envisaged but no complaints :lol: not sure i'll get anymore aperture fever (when it comes to refractors). speaking of which first refractor so will probably have some teething issues (expected) but does that reducer flattener look massive or what? of course feels so front heavy as i'm used to back heavy newts.
actually pretty impressed with the focuser quality the plan was to install a moonlite (already have a motorised one on the newt) but perhaps no rush for that just yet.
anyway been out of action on photography for some time, keen to get out of there as soon as the weather clears :sadeyes: atleast its nearly full moon ;)
