Hello, all!

Well I have been into astronomy since the end of 2005, and have had some great experiences with the Astronomical Society of Victoria.

My scope is a 200mm Dobsonian, and has served me well with just the 25mm and 10mm eyepieces, and a 2x Barlow.

For my 21st I got a Canon EOS 450D, which is a great DSLR camera, and I have been keen to branch out into more astrophotography.

So, this Christmas, I got a HEQ5 mount, on a pier, which I hope to use with my 8" Dob and/or Camera.

Just as soon as I work out how to polar align and set up the scales on the mount...Sigma Octans is very hard to find!
