Looking forward to responses to this. Trying to get my 8” Newt organized for imaging (focuser alignment, collimation, elimating tilt in the heavy image train, getting the correct distance from sensor to Coma Corrector - trying the match the mechanical alignment with the optical alignment) while taming it on an HEQ5. Think the mount is okay, but the rest seems to require quite a bit of fiddling around and testing. The refractor seems to me to be a more stable system to deal with, although some similar issues. Diego’s pics are amazing so clearly it’s possible but I wonder what efforts go into making that happen, or have gone into making it happen?
