ok I'm game for a planetary session :-) I can get the 10" out then, oh err!

Tony, seriously that camera JP is on about really is good, maybe not as good as Fay's SE camera but for the money its a winner I think.

Chris,

You used a piece of plastic for your flat frame, can you hold a piece of white paper up instead?

Fay


Tony,

You would be able to get some DSO with the EOS. I got M81,82, not amazing as not long enough exposures, but with more care.........

Hi,

JP Ok

Fay, yes but it bends and gets web and you really need something to diffuse the light.

TG, I did not know you has a EOS and the Web Cam, you have two scopes, you can get piggy back rails, K3CCD took and you can take guided images!  Man, you can do deep sky work, excuses excuses.
