If using a DSLR without a guidescope how long could i expect my exposures to be before running into problems? Stacking heaps of exposures wouldn't be an issue and i need something to do when its cloudy. There is a number of excellent images on the forum taken with relatively short exposures on dslrs which have inspired and given me confidence to try my own.
I have an EQ6 pro and would just be tracking with this mount. Maybe start out doing widefield with just cam piggybacked on 10" dob and using an ED80. Will add autoguiding as i manage to save for different things. Unfortunately promised the other half would spend some money on "bling" for her after buying the mount so trying to get into it cheaply. Think she has realised how expensive this hobby could be and isn't too impressed but she knows i love it so can be talked around to most purchases (for now) :-)
Any tips? Whats an st80 like to start imaging with then to use it as a guidescope when i can get a nicer ED?
