Hello,
I have finally taken the plunge and obtained a pretty good set up to get started in Astrophotography.
I purchased a ED80T and a NEQ6 mount plus a nice 60mm guide scope. I think this is a pretty good first set up. The idea being the shorter focal length will be far more forgiving and allow me learn (at least in theory).
I have to say the visual views are amazing even for a small scope. I also have a 12 inch Newtonian but I often find myself just getting out the ED80T. The telescope is as light as a feather. The NEQ6 gives me a bit of a work out when I drag it in and out though.
While I have pretty much obtained reasonable polar alignment I think I can get it a bit better.
Anyone know of any good tutorials for it. I understand the basics and have it pretty much ok. But if anyone knows any easy to follow steps then please let me know.
