Hi Graeme

I wouldn’t be too sure about that! I started of my Lunar & Planetary imaging “career” with a 4” refractor and a Meade LPI and was astonished at what I was able to produce. It was just amazing to see details of Jupiter and capture the Galilean moons, as well as some nice detail on the Moon, along with the rings of Saturn and the tiny disc of Uranus.

Whilst these images were not comparable to those posted here by the likes of Bird, Mike, DP, Matt, JohnK, etc., for me, they represented a great achievement and gave me a real sense of satisfaction, as well as heaps of fun.

So, don’t be afraid to experiment – an apprenticeship has to start somewhere!

Cheers

Dennis
