Michael, what do you call a wobbly stand?

I use my ED80 on an EQ1 (some people shudder) and track with the little battery powered motor box (more people shudder). The EQ1 and motor box is a total of $170!!! I am happy with the results from this set-up so far.

For such a despised set-up for astrophotography I am getting fairly good results.

See here for an example: http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/s...ad.php?t=12923

Oh, and I love your Moonset Pic
