do seeing conditions differ for planetary Vs deep space imaging?
Is planetary imaging or deep space imaging more sensitive to the quality of seeing conditions?
Sorry that was more than 1 question...
Thanks for your help

you can go onto skippysky.com.au and that will show you forecasts for seeing and different types of cloud conditions. planetary imaging is impossible in bad seeing, wide field imaging is fine and relatively short FL imaging is okay too. when you start to get over the 1000mm FL mark then Deep sky imaging becomes very sensitive to seeing (from my experience)
