Hi all. Super sad. :sadeyes: As has happened to many before, life hasn't allowed me the time to pursue my passion.
So I am wanting to sell on my complete astrophotography setup to someone who will love it and use it. It's set up for both planetary colour and deep space color imaging.
The only extra thing yo need is a laptop.
I won't separate parts at this this stage. Pick up only
Except for the OTA and the Hyperion, it is all less than 12 months old and in excellent condition. Used about 5 times. Stored in cases and with desiccant as the photo's show.
It have been so easy to use and image with. I will attach some photo's of what I've imaged.

Please see the list below -

Skywatcher 80ED OTA
HEQ5Pro Telescope Mount
Orion 0.85x Focal Reducer for ED80 Refractor
ZWO ASI294MC Pro Cooled Astronomy Camera
ZWO ASI120MC-S USB3.0 Colour
ZWO 30F4 Guidescope
Bintel Focal Reducer 0.5x (1.25 Inch)
Orion PinPoint Focusing Mask
Orion Narrow Dovetail Mounting Plate
7.5 amp 2 x 12 volt power supply
Bluetooth shoestring adapter
Tele vue 2 x barlow (1.25")
Baader Hyperion mark 3 Zoom lense
Baader UHC-S Filter 2”
Bintel 42mm wide angle 92")
Illuminated reticle (1.25")

Value of all parts new is around $5700.

Asking price, $4500

I should mention also that I chose this setup to be able to also be used for live viewing.
Using Sharpcap, you can stack the images live and watch them resolve before our eyes. You can record the frames at the same time of course.
I couldn't believe my eyes when the flame and horse head nebula started to resolve!
Great for sharing the experience with friends and family also.:thumbsup:

Interested in the mount, guidescope, if split. (Maybe the whole package too except for the 294 which stretches it beyond my current budget).
