I really like those. I've never had the equipment to take high res colour but I have quite a few low res B+W time lapse videos.

Some of my amateur attempts here.

The GT was an F5, this is the GTL is definately an 80mm F11 scope.

I did apologise a couple on replies ago, I have an old Prinz Astral 500 that is 60mm x 1000mm do you think it woulld be any good piggy backed on to my Celestron 9.25 or would the the GTL be better?

As a guidescope or for some other purpose?
