Beginners equipment
Hi,
I am wanting to start up in astrophotography, I already have a Celestron C90 and a DSLR but got the wrong stuff and have to start again. I am intending to buy a EQ6 Pro Synscan for the mount side of things. I did intend to get a SW APO 100 ED PRO but my budget has suffered before I got started. Would a Skywatcher SW-880 Newtonian $399 from Andrews(13 - 14kg) hang off the EQ6 ok. What are my chances of planetary and deep space photography with this combination. The guide scope etc would have to come later. I would initially piggyback my dslr, I have a 400mm mirror lens and a 300mm prime refractor too.
What extra equipment would I need with the SW-880 OTA to attach my DSLR (Pentax 6Mp), I have a T-ring for the C90 and a Pentax thread mount ring.
Cheers,
Phil (Sunshine Coast)
