Not sure what's wrong.
So took the scope out for a few hours tonight.
1. Had a lot of issues finding alignment points for the goto. Mainly lack of knowledge on my part.
2. By the coast is a bit wet without a dew heater.
Now the troubling parts.
How do you turn down the brightness?
Looking at the moon was like starting into a torch.
After looking away, all I could see was black for a couple of minutes. Hope I'm not damaging the old eyes.
Focusing on the moon was good. Nice and clear.
Mars or Jupiter were just blurry blobs. Not sure if I was getting moisture build up or something else.
I do wear glasses and I'm wondering if I need different glasses for using the scope? Any advice.
Also having an issue with eyes watering like mad each time I look into the eyepiece. Not sure if it's wind in my eyes or the directed light. Any glasses wearers for some words of wisdom?
Did get this with the phone though.
Once I'm focusing ok, I'll get the DSLR out.
