Although it gives me oval stars with my mount ( at the moment ), it helps me confirm the framing before embarking on my sub collection. Same thing I guess, just a different way of skinning the cat. I can't wait till the day I can get the kind of pictures you and several others get. I know bigger apature and a better mount would make this easier but the size of my setup is directly proportional to my bank account so I guess I'm lucky that I like a challenge
I'm hearing you! It's taken me 6 years to gather all of the equipment I use at the moment. I learnt astrophotography on a SCT which some will say isn't the best idea, however, I've found it's been really enjoyable and I love the challenge. At the moment I'm trying to save so I can build a little ROR Obs
