Ok thanks heaps . I'll try that and let you know how it goes.

also wondering what eyepieces to get (it only came with the one) and whether a x2 Barlow is a good option. Also thinking about a dewlap and wondered. What I need in the way of an adapter to take a camera, and also what you could recommend for a good beginners astro camera? Sorry for all the questions, I know I'm a pain, but appreciate your help.
