Hi,

I have got a basic set up for a fellow teacher who wants to get his Yr 11 Physics kids taking pictures. He has several options but I have tried to get the equipment he purchased up and running as it has sat in the same box for nearly two years after it arrived.

Attached are images of the set up ( needs to buy guide rings and skywatcher style dovetail for a side by side set up ), M 20 which is 18 x 2 minute subs with only darks applied, and finally a crop of an area showing the elongated stars. the focusser is standard without 10:1 ratio. I have not tried to collimate as it is brand new so maybe later down the track. Mount is an HEQ5Pro with 15Kg hanging off it.

Any suggestions appreciated.
