Hi Peter,

That’s an incredible image !!!

Looked at your equipment list

I wish I had held off buying my HEQ5 mount back in February as the EQ6-R looks far superior plus I would have enough payload capacity to increase from my existing 6” to 8” or 10” in the future

The HEQ5 is definitely basic entry level - you pay for what you get , but it’s got me started and I’m capturing some good images in Sydney and down at Narrawallee

My next step is auto guiding later in the year to increase my exposure time from 90 sec at best before star trailing to + 5 minutes

Cheers
