I did an extensive test/review of the new Dwarf 3 telescope.

 

Since everyone just seems to photograph the same 2 objects I figured I would put it to the actual test of photographing a dark nebula with it.

 

For sure you'd need a lot of integration but the EQ mode changes everything.

welcome.gif Great video. I am interested to see how the Dwarf 3 compares to the Seestar S30. Will you be doing that?

I just watched your YouTube last night.  I already have a Seestar 50 but you have me thinking Dwarf 3.  Equatorial mode just works better for long exposures.
