Thank you for the kind words
The synscan dob is amazing for visual astronomy, and that's what it's designed for.
But of course I'm going to try astrophotography with it because why not

I even got took some exposures of M42 as it was rising in the east at 2 am with it
But they didn't look very good at 1500mm focal with a small sensor camera
I knew it wouldn't work very well but hey why not
Always looking to be pleasantly surprised.
