First Pic ever

Alderney (Dave) · #1 14-06-2008, 04:32 PM

Took this on Wednesday night at 8:30. My first pic ever using the Digiscope adapter I bought from Tandum ( Robin ) last week and my Canon PowerShot SX 100 IS the EP used is my 25mm super plossl. Being just a point and click photographer I was over the moon

with the way it turned out.
I will now have to get the Lumicon adapter that Robin showed in his for sale thread as it takes EP's up to 66mm in dia whereas the one from Robin only goes to 45mm. I will then be able to use my Pentax EP's.

Thanks for looking guy's. I ordered the Lumicon Adapter yesterday, now waiting for MyAstroShop to e-mail me their bank details. Looking forward to taking pics with my Pentax EP's. Then I will have a go at Saturn and Jupiter.
