The consensus is clear, the AA filter will stay off.
Glen, I already have got bitten by the modding bug, a big one. In the last 3 months I:
- upgraded my EQ5 from dual-axis drive to a belt-driven system
- built OnStep-based controller for the new drive
- build a guidescope from a finderscope
- modded the 1200D
- started working on a cooled box for the 1200D
The worst thing is that the clouds allowed me only a few hours to test the belt drive and the guiderscope. I just placed the mount on the ground and went from 30 seconds unguided to 10 minutes guided with ED80. I did not even try going longer (light pollution is a problem). Most likely beginner's luck, I had no idea what I was doing, I just clicked go in PHD.
Can't wait to get it all out again in the next few days and start playing with things. The forecast looks promising.
