My 8" SCT is a 91 model and doesnt have GOTO or AUTOGUIDING capabilities so i did a lot of hand guiding/correction using PEC.
I used to use my Minolta 7000 but now the Canon has taken over, i still like the film cameras, trick is to find decent people to print them!!

Cheers!
thanks for info Chris, I realised later that i had asked the same dumb question of you back with P1 in jan
my experience with guided piggyback stuff was purely all hand guided in the old sense of the terminology - can be a pain in the neck/back ect. lol
imagine being able to visually observe while taking pics like the guys with all the whizbang stuff ! must be nice, we can dream i guess ")
you do well for hand guided, even with pec eh! onya
