Trying new things

I'm a big fan of breaking from the norm and doing things a bit different, but I believe the camera will struggle to be sensitive enough given the 2lux min illumination. I have also experienced zoom lenses have optical artefacts even on expensive set ups and need to be stopped down a bit to reduce them.

The guide scope I currently use an old 80mm Achromatic f5 with a UV/IR fringe filter and DSI 2 pro behind it and most times I get a star bright enough to track on.

Good luck with your endeavours.

Justin
