Buying a telescope was my Longterm wish and I recently fulfilled it by buying an 8" dobsonian telescope. Your videos are enlightening... I was confused whether I should by a astrophotography camera, your video cleared that. Loved your simple explanations and the flow. Love from Chennai, India. Thank you

Grand Bravo pour cette très intéressante et utile vidéo . En effet j'utilise un Nikon D5200 monté sur mon N203/1000 GOTO j'obtiens de belles nébuleuses planétaires M57 M27 ou amas M13 mais entourées après empilement sequator uniquement de très peu d'étoiles ( grosses et baveuses).Même chose avec M31 où j'obtiens le cœur mais pas assez d'étoiles !! S'agit il de la Coma ? Dois-je réduire la focale comme vous ? J'ai aussi une camera bresser full HD deepsky 1;25.que j'utilise pour observer les planètes. Serait-elle meilleur pour le ciel profond ? A priori oui en utilisant le logiciel sharpcap !! Un grand merci pour les conseils

I am in the process of choosing my first telescope and I want something that will allow me to do decent visual astronomy at first but also start doing photography at some point.

Antes de ver os seus vídeos, nunca tinha ouvido falar das plataformas equatoriais. Como funcionam? Já percebi que coloca o telescópio em cima da plataforma e ela de alguma forma desloca o telescópio, simulando uma montagem equatorial. Mas como? Só em azimute, deixando a altura ao cuidado do utilizador? São muito caras? Fica a sugestão para um vídeo. 😉

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/brSZo6Wqm6uaY5c.html

@Volans2000 Жыл бұрын

OK, já percebi que o telescópio fica em cima da plataforma e esta tem um quadrante que vai inclinando o telescópio entre os limites de 1h. Quando chega a esse limite, tem que reiniciar a plataforma e voltar a encontrar o objecto, para o observar durante mais 1h. A plataforma tem uma escala para regular a latitude (que é igual à altura do pólo celeste). No entanto, inclinar o telescópio 38°... A sua plataforma na imagem não parece tão inclinado.

Sir, I understand you’re using SharpCap for image capture, but I wanted to ask - what software are you using for scope/go-to/tracking management? If it is also SharpCap, how so? Am rewatching a lot of your videos just trying to learn as much as I can .. but, there’s a lot to learn! Enjoying it though .. well, with few instances of ugly language. Ha!

Recently got a 10 inch StellaLyra dobsonian and now interested with doing EAA. Just looking to see which good zwo camera to try as a start that is not too expensive. Looking at the 224 or 178 so far. Or what would you recommend. Mostly starting out as I see the camera you have is definitely better but also more expensive. And then an asterion ecliptica pro for tracking.

@DobsonianPower 2 жыл бұрын

Congrats for the 10". I strongly recommend the zwo294 for your Dob. Mine is the uncooled version which is cheaper. If you can't, the 224 and 178 are ok but you will want a larger sensor in the future. I have a video about my camera choice: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m76oY8eHqM20Z3U.html
