Thanks Malcom,
I was informed that it is possible to do an above beginner level to intermediate photography with this setup. I believe it IS possible from what I've been told, however, after some research, I have found that there is an extension tube to attach to the t-piece that I need in order to achieve focus with the DSLR.
Your advice is extremely informative! Thank you!
I'm not sure if I am doing it right, but I used a compass app on my samsung to polar align to the south pole here. I was advised this is a reasonably good way to set up and polar align the mount.
I am interested in joining the Astronomical Society here. I will join once I feel confident enough to "know the basics" so to speak. I had actually heard of the site out at Heathcote. Sounds very promising.
Thanks again!
Clay
