New to Astrophotography

Hi All

I just bought all new gear to get into astrophotography. I bought a HEQ5 Pro with a GSO 6" RC. I cannot afford a decent camera so Im just using my Nikon D7100 and might buy a D810A later this year.

Just need some help, setting up the polar scope. The manual is hopeless in explaining it. Can someone help me explain it as I do have dyslexia. Can I get around this to do a precise Polar alignment or do I have to use the polar scope.

Also is it worth buying RGBL filters and setting the camera to BW?

Thanks
Ben
