Tonight i joined the list of people to have held a glimmer of hope that their first night with new set up would run smoothly, only to head inside with tail firmly between legs.
Got the last few pieces (incl mount) off my set up this arvo and did my best to get ready for a night of wonder and amazement. I think i did some things well, some obviously not so well because after about 15 tries, the alignment on my mount only seemed to be getting worse. I switched it off, put the camera on, took a few 30s exposures at iso 800 and 1600... blackness.
BUT there were definitely some positives too. I loved it. I didn't lose anything. I used almost everything. There were a loot of firsts. I didn't break anything (that i know of). I felt like i was part of the real crew, eventhough i wasn't actually getting anything done.
Anyway, i have a thousand questions, I'll put them in my beginners equipment thread ����
