Proposed hardware

[viking58]

Hi all

Can I have your opinions re the following setup.

Have I lost my mind ? Glaring weaknesses or problems ?


EQ6 Pro

Meade ED APO 5000

SW80 as guide with Orion SSAG

CCD TBA


Does this setup limit my options ?

I would like to have an single adaptor on the APO to allow for both
CCD connection and viewing. Suggestions ?

Also if the SW80 is a suitable guide - best mount type(s).

Thanks again

Viking

sorry - should be Orion ST 80

Fella, dont think i am having a go ...

but why start this thread, when you started one yesterday along the same lines, and people are contributing to it?

:question:


Why the Meade Apo? the focuser will be 2" and will take a CCD nosepiece or 2" eyepieces respectively

:)

EDIT : Yes, i use an Orion SSAG with an ST80, and it works great
