Hi fellas,
Just a gentle reminder to keep on topic as this thread is about a mersing trip.
Perhaps one of you might want to start a thread "Who has the Biggest Piece in Singastro?" under "coffee chat" corner..?

Hi, here's some of the pics taken during the trip. No astro shots unfortunately....

Obsession and it's proud owner Yang Beng!

C5-C8-astroslew combo

who says Pentax, Vixen and Televue can't be friends?

Nice pics! Yang Beng seem to look younger these days...

Btw, how did you manage to align both scopes to target the same object?

Hi,
Actually we didn't look through the combo. It was more of trying to show off the setup. I don think it's possible to align both scopes.

Rlow,

If you mount the C5 on a precision tilting stage (those used in labs), it may be possible. However, not sure about the vibration as such precision tilting stage has certain load limits.

Hmm.. do I look younger? I thought I look young already until kopitiam people always call me 'ah boi'.
