Thanks for the replies so far. Afocal oh that’s what it is.

With a DSLR you can use it with a Barlow to get good image size for Planets?

Or eyepiece projection? I use to do it that way, eyepiece projection with my old SLR!

Re a scope my Mak at F12 is better for Planets? Yes, but with today’s DSLR will it be ok for DSO work?

Prefer not to sell the Mak. But I would consider it to get say a 8” F4 or F5 Newt.
For better DSO work. Maybe a 80mm Refractor!
Seems to me that today’s DSLR and toucams etc open up a different range of possibilities.

Also is the Nikon D50 a good buy?

Also no one has said anything re the GSTAR- EX yet!!! What no good? or to expensive for what it is?

Thanks for your input so far.
