I am (reluctantly) moving on my wide field set up. While I have had this gear for a number of years, other commitments (and interests) has meant that the gear has been rarely used.
The set up comprises:
Losmandy StarLapse System with Declination Axis Module – details can be found here:
http://www.atscope.com.au/losmandy/starlapse.html System comprises the gear drive assembly and controller, camera mount assembly and 12” beam. Power is provided by 12V cigarette lighter plug. (Does anyone remember cigarette lighters in cars used to light ciggies?). RRP is $895. My price is $600.
Losmandy Polar Scope – details can be found here:
https://www.bintel.com.au/product/lo...ope-gm-8-g-11/ RRP is $533. My price is $300.

Manfrotto MH055M0-RC4 Ball Head – details
https://www.manfrotto.com/global/057...e-mh057m0-rc4/RRP is $560. My price is $350.
Manfrotto 808RC4 Standard 3-Way Head – details can be found here:

Sigma 20mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens for Canon – details can be found here:
https://www.teds.com.au/sigma-af-20m...-hsm-art-canon RRP is $1,189. My price is $1,000.
Canon EF 70-200mm F/4 L IS USM zoom lens. This is the original model not the current USM II model. RRP for the USM II zoom is $2,559 and I’ve seen old original models for sale for at $1,479. My price is $1,000.
Hahnel Giga T Pro II wireless timer remote – details can be found here:
https://www.excesscameragear.com.au/...s-timer-remote RRP is $25. My price is $10.
Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3 – again, details:
https://www.teds.com.au/canon-rs80n3-remote-release RRP is $99. My price is $50.
With this set up, all you need is a camera and, preferably, a computer.
My preference is to sell all of the above as a package. Total price is $4,290. If you buy the full pack, the price is $3,900.
Rather than clog up the forum with pics, send me a DM with the items you are interested in and an email address and I’ll send pics along.
Pick up in Inner West, Sydney. Inspection before purchase is encouraged. Will post at buyer’s cost in Australia.
