One of the best explanations…thanx One thing that I do find confusing… the t-shirt :) I don’t like this because of risk of extra contamination on the surface of the lens… T-shirt can be ‘fuzz’ generators lol

2:00 minutes in, "You have to use a 2" filter for this camera." Now you tell me! LOL! I kinda like the circular frame to my images. Round Telescopes, Square sensors. What is wrong with this picture? So now I need addional filter wheels and filters. Smooth move ZWO. Sells equipment. Not laughing anymore.

2 years late, but I agree, I must talk to myself or I’ll screw something up lol! Great video!

Is it possible to replace the dovetail rail with a longer one, so that a weight would not be required to balance the scope?

Sorry I watch this later.

If you are shooting all night long, just use an electronic focuser ;)

you need a good tracking mount first. something like the Celestron AVX for around $500 used or $1,000 new.

Very nice!

Thanks for this tutorial. I have a question: if I use a filter meant for emission nebulae on non-emission targets, such as galaxies, will there be any loss of data or natural color in the final image (when using a OSC)?

It's awesome ❤

As you demonstrate, one can get good images of galaxies with a small scope. I’ve done so with my WO Redcat 61 (300mm) combined with the ZWO ASI533mc and got a good image of the Pinwheel galaxy last year that clearly revealed the supernova that was discovered in late May. Also, although you didn’t elaborate, I think you said you used sheets of paper to help get the proper exposure when creating calibration frames with your gear. If I am interpreting this correctly, I think that means for your flats, you put a few sheets of paper between the light pad and the end of your scope to adjust the too-bright light from the pad. If I’ve got this correct, that’s exactly what I do because the lowest illumination from my pad is too bright for the exposure length I want for my flats. I am after a minimum of two seconds of exposure for my flats and prefer something between three and four seconds.

You don't need to level anything if you use an equatorial mount

What is a good offset and gain?

Great video and amazing results I also did the pinwheel but with a 714mm and I also loved the the smaller Galaxies in the background

superb vid good sir , im currently using Nikon Z6 Dslr and Sigma 150-600mm lens on a HEQ5 pro mount and running nina i live in the UK in a bortle 4 zone what would you recommend filter wise (low cost if poss) i think clip in filters are a thing or something else ? many thanks Tim :)

Nice.

Sehr schön.Toll gemacht

Welcome back friend!!!! Just my 2 cents you don’t need to level that precise your tripod, just the smartphone level is enough

Hi, why you can't use the ASI2600MC duo with a large telescope? I use it with my RC8

Nice work. Beautiful final image. With that focal length my I suggest M81 & M82. I dud them with tge 250mm of tge Redcat 51.......👌👌👌👌

Nice video! I am still waiting for the mount to return from repair and will give the first light to my 2600 MC DUO as well 😜

Glad to see you back!

Great Video Tim! I like wide field images of Galaxies. Thanks!

Nice Image Tim, I actually quite like wide field images of galaxies, it amazes me just how many galaxies in the fov can be captured with even a small scope like a Red Cat 51, which funnily enough I also used on April 10 to image M101.

excellent Finale'

Nice shot! The wide field scope is actually perfect for Markarian's chain :)

Nice to see you back.

I love a wide field Galaxy image. Lets the viewer feel the vastness of space. Nice image, Tim. Thanks for taking time from your studies to put together a video.

Great video Tim! Love the kit! 👍

Nice choice of music.

Nice.

Brilliant video as always :)

HI, as always love your videos. What antenna did you buy?

Thank you! Just got autoguiding working and thought it wouldn't hurt to try this dithering stuff out right away:)

how would you compare the 2600MC Pro with the 294MC Pro - especially for larger (130mm f5.6-7 APO) - I'm concerned about oversampling with smaller pixels!

I setup my Heq5 pro for the first time today and I noticed that when I looked through the polar scope the red light that lights up the polar scope was drowning out Polaris and I couldn't see it unless I turned the power off because the red light was too bright. Is that how it is done or is there a setting to dim the red light so I can see Polaris with the red light on? Thanks in advance.

Clear skies Tim, make it easy and fun!

Welcome back! Congrats to your degree and this nice video! Looking forward for more astro-vlogs :)

Has got the same package yesterday 🤡 The package of QHY268m was better.🤷‍♂️

Nice to see you back Tim. Best. Damien

Fancy.

Congrats on obtaining your degree, Tim, and may I say, you've got some fancy B-roll there. ;-)

Als ich die Justierung sah wurde ich sehr froh das ich ein newton mit seichten okularauazug habe.

3:00 your warranty CANNOT be voided in the US unless it is proven ehat you did caused the damage. If you remove the primary and the glue or coating on the secondary fails you are still meant to be covered. I honestly prefer building my own equipment.

1:38 modt of it is global optics which is based in Taiwan im pretty sure, they sell the mirrors incase you want to vuild your own RC.

Will you please provide an interconnection block diagram of Method 2. Thank you

Very good... I will get there one day,,, Not Andromeda but to Photoshop.

Thanks Tim, very well done

Now that's a nice end transition!!! 😂
