Referbished set up

[leon]

Hi All,

Well all the changing, swapping, and fiddling has come to an end, and now i'm happy with the set-up and performance of my equipment.

First we have a pier, with 20mm alluminium base plates and a G11 on top with extension. I constructed a side by side mounting plate which attached directly to the base plate of for the G11.

On top is, Canon 300mm F/2.8 Lens with Canon 5D, next to that, Takahash FSQ-106, F/5.0 scope, then next to that is a Williams 80mm FD refractor, which will be the guide scope eventually.

It is all accurately balanced and slews beautifully, tested it out last night, so i thought you might like a look.

[ballaratdragons (Ken)]

Excellent Leon.

Glad to see you mounted the Red WO!
It looked so lonely sitting on your desk.

[iceman (Mike)]

That is just beautiful, Leon.

How portable is it, to bring to BSG?

[gbeal]

The balance will change when you image with the FSQ? Or do you not plan on imaging with it? Looks lovely.

[leon]

Oh yes, i will be imaging through the FSQ as well, and the balance is taken care of, i usually have an other camera attached to that (not shown) in the image.
