I would like to add my opinion on this from a complete newbie perspective.
First off, Alex, you wrote a great article on something that I am just starting to look at with my 2 scopes, a 4" SCT and a 8" Newt. Congrats on a great article that has provided an insight to this topic.
Secondly, to everyone that has contributed. I have followed this thread intently. It has been a great learning process to hear from so many users and all of their opinions/techniques.
Only a couple of weeks ago I started to explore the concept of needing more equipment to overcome this problem. This thread has really given me a lot of advice on what I do or do not need. It has possibly stopped me from a purchase that I do not really need. This is the great thing about this forum, everyone gets to have a say, and for a newbie, this is invaluable.
Just my thoughts.
Andrew.
