Thank you everyone for watching! Much more coming!

Haven’t done any astrophotography in years. Used to have just a 4” Mak-Cas that I hooked my Nikon up to, and it took stunning photos of planets and larger deep sky objects. Got an 8” Dob a while ago, and waiting for it to warm up a bit before lugging it out. Nice channel. Thanks.

Hey man, I know this is a really old video but I hope you see this comment. You're really helping me out a lot, I just purchased the identical scope that you have and after watching some of your videos... man I'm so excited! Keep up this amazing content! I'll wait to watch the Orion Nebula video, don't wanna spoil my views too much ;) thank you so much

Informative and useful video. Thanks. I had gathered stuff based on this or that video and couldn't get anything to work. Your step by step presentation with specifics as to parts was perfect.

Thanks a million for this video! YOU have everything I have and needed! CHEERS! And keep the vids coming sir!

This is great. My first Scope was shipped today. I got the Apetura ad8. We already have a Nikon Camera, so this is perfect thanks again!

Quick and simple! Love that video!

Nice, informative video. Thanks.

Great video! I have same telescope and I want take pictures of sky but didnt know how to add DSLR to telescope, now I know T2 ring is everything I need. Thank you.

You got a new subscriber, well deserved

Did you have any problems with focusing with the first method? I have the same telescope and I'd like to try it out. Great vid btw😃

Thank you so much for this very helpful

Great video, thanks for that

Thanks for making this video. Does the image fill the frame on the camera? Or is it cropped in?

Hello, i have heard that newtonian telescopes have some problems about the focusing if there is attached a DSLR, have you had the same problem and, if yes, how did you fix It? Thanks!

Hey :D i was curious of the power supply for the camera. I mean , if i use Live View it will drain my battery real quick. Do you use an adaptor instead of the battery? and plugged in the wall?

Im a bit late but, Very useful videos! I am looking for a Sky-Watcher Heritage 130 Tabletop Dobsonian (1st telescope) and i was wondering if this setup would work on this particular model

Same method i use on my telescope! pretty much the same for all 1.25"

Helpful video - thanks! Are the motorized mounts mostly for deep sky images? I am mostly interested in the planets and moon right now.

Great info, you should show some photos!

Good video but... you showed several ways to connect the DLSR to the scope each with different attachments and I have no idea why I’d use on config over another?

So can you photograph most of the planets well with the short focal length of your dob? Or do you need buy more stuff to coax a better picture?

Hi, nice video! Keep doing the good job!I'm interested to buy this telescope too...I also have a Canon DSLR 500D and i would like to connect it to the telescope in addition to the t-ring do I need to buy also and a t-adapter?If yes any link to buy celestron t-adapter?Thanks for your time.

Thank you!!!!

I got all the attachments for my Orion XT8. Using an older canon rebel t1i. I was unable to get the camera to focus on the moon unless I attached my Barlow. Got some nice shots, but would love not be so zoomed in due to the Barlow. I tried to work with the connections to get a 25mm lens to attach, but nothing would fit together right. Only the Barlow would work. Seems like the camera needs a telescope lens attached to get it to focus with this setup. Any suggestions to fix this problem?

I recently connected my dslr to my Apertura Dobsonian using just a tring and t-adapter, but I can't seem to get close enough to focus. I'm new to all this and need all the help I can can get. So, any tips on how I can fix this?

What if i want to use a ccd camera(svbony sv305) to do the same projection...what would be the difference in setup?

would this set up work for galaxies or nebula? or is the focal length of dobsonians not worth trying it

So I take it the only way to increase magnification is to use a barlow?

Thank you for this information. May I ask the name of the song/artist used in this video? I like it. Thank you.

Is a t3i still recommended? Or t5i is better?

Question..I have a 8 inch Dobsonian, with the T ring etc etc, and I am going to buy a second hand DSLR to attach to it. Now, what second hand one should I go for ? because there seems to be a massive selection out there with all varying specs..is it best to get one with the highest pixel count on the detector? like there's 18 megapixels versus lower ones around 12 and so on, or is the lenses inside more important..I really need some advice on this..too many options....

Have you tried eyepiece projection with eyepiece baader style screwed straight into dslr I use this method on my 90mm f500 refractor I am getting a 250px dobs was wondering about focuc

I also have a newtonian and a dslr and focus ok, but if i put my 3x barlow lens between the dslr and scope, I have no focus at all.Did you had that issue?

I've had issues where without a barlow it just looks like I'm staring into the barrel of the telescope, you see the whole mirror and X of the secondary, the barlow seems to bring the camera's imaging into proper focus. but good explanation! thanks

Thank you for the information and video. I have a question maybe I missed it in the video I do apologise but my question is how would you attach the camera with a lens attached to the scope?

How come I can't get my dslr to focus completely to the moon on 12" dob. I use a tring with no spacer tube and max out the adjustment inwards and it still needs to go in just a hair to completely focus in. Is the 2x Barlow needed?

Is the SLR or SVbony 305 the best camera?

Can u achieve focus with your first way? i ahve the same telescope and i want to try but i heard that u cant achieve focus in some reflectors with prime focus. Did you?

Hey thanks for the video, I have the same telescope and a canon rebel t6 and I have it set up the way you do but I am not able to achieve focus on anything! I need some help :)

Thanks for the vid! Cant seem to get my Canon to focus. Must be missing something.

Use my SW Equinox ED80 pretty well

Hi. Greetings from Germany. I have a Dobsonian teleskope. I didn't understand the name of camera. Can you please write the name of the camera here?! Thank you

Im going through the searching issues for my set up now.Confusing. 100 different products, all slightly different

Possible attarct dslr to heritage 100p Dobsonian?

Ur lucky to live in a place with little light pollution

What type Of Camera That was I Missed It ? .

cant focus with this setup ?

There's no such thing as a Dobsonian telescope. What you have there is a Newtonian telescope, attached to a Dobsonian mount. Otherwise, very informative video. Thanks, for the upload!
