dobsonian tracking
Hi All,
I have another question re Dobs.
How hard is it to keep an object in the eyepiece at high powers?
I can track objects at high power 200x, quite easily,with my Tasco 8v,
But given an 8 inch dob,could go to approx 400x in good conditions,would you be able to track the object ok,at that magnification, or would you have to reduce magnification drastically to keep it in view?
I ask this, as I know Dobs are meant to be nudged into position,rather than controlled by slow motion control.
Thanks for any advice.
Regards,John
