It's a tough target, and it was a seconary target for me that night. I was having mirror flop problems all night long and the bubble was a target that worked out. I love my SCT, but imaging is getting iffy with it. -------------------- 8" SCT Losmandy G11, CG5 mounts Canon Digital Rebel 400 Kodak Easyshare 2.0 Megapixels 5, 8, 13, 17, 24mm Orion Stratus Hyperion 31 mm Aspheric Pentax 10 mm XW Edited by HaleBopper (11/02/09 05:13 PM) Post Extras:       Nils_Lars Post Laureate Reged: 01/04/08 Posts: 3410 Loc: Santa Cruz Mountains , CA Re: NGC 7635 From July [Re: HaleBopper]       #3426537 - 11/02/09 11:37 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   I bought a cheap off axis guider im going to try out with mine because im sick of the flexure /drift between the SCT and ED80 , if it works out I might lose the side by side and buy a nicer OAG. Have you seen the new AO unit from Orion , I have seen JPM from over in CCD do great things with his SCT on a fork mount because he uses AO. -------------------- Erik Orion Atlas Self Hypertuned (EQMOD) Orion ED 80 Williams Optics VII reducer Celestron 8" SCT Orion Starshoot Autoguider PHD guide Canon 400D Hap Griffin Mod w/Baader filter Astronomik clip-in LP filter and 12nm Ha Stilleto CVF and Bahtinov mask Tamron 75-300mm&28-80mm lenses NexImage webcam http://www.flickr.com/photos/31986095@N05/ Post Extras:       HaleBopper professor emeritus Reged: 01/14/08 Posts: 500 Loc: Great White North Re: NGC 7635 From July [Re: Nils_Lars]       #3426912 - 11/03/09 06:58 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Mine is a piggyback system. My problems have been due to mirror flop. I have decided to just get a newt. I'm probably going to get the AT 8" imaging newt and go from there. The C8 wil be for lunar/planets AP, and visual. -------------------- 8" SCT Losmandy G11, CG5 mounts Canon Digital Rebel 400 Kodak Easyshare 2.0 Megapixels 5, 8, 13, 17, 24mm Orion Stratus Hyperion 31 mm Aspheric Pentax 10 mm XW Post Extras:       Pages: 1 Previous   Index   Next   Threaded   Extra information 14 registered and 12 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
