Nice capture nonetheless!  |
I am very impressed as the c-90 has a light path problem, the mount was unbalanced because I was not set up to use such a heavy lens and it was not central on the RA shaft so the weight was dragging the mount. As I said I was just playing around to see the potential, and it looks bright (pardon the pun
). I only took 3 images, first one trailed to buggery, the other 2 it was locked up as good as I could get it.
Now in the market for a eq5 equivalent with polar scope and dual drives.
