Hers's what I have. A orion starblast 4.5 astroimager on a celestron cg-5 advanced mount. A meade DSi imager, laptop, and not a clue where to start. Is there a tutorial available somewhere? Or do I just dive in and try to figure it out?

Start googling DSI imaging and read these forums. They are bursting with tips and advice. Once you have specific questions, ask them here and they virtually alwyas get answered. - John -------------------- C11/Atlas Mount/Denk II BV SV102ED/AT Voyager DSI IIc, DSI II Pro ST-80, Mallincam Hyper Plus B/W Video Camera Post Extras:       Pages: 1 Previous   Index   Next   Threaded   Extra information 3 registered and 3 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
