Hi Jia Hao!

Thanks for taking the time and effort to describe it! Looks like you really love your ETX

Where did you get it? Locally or overseas? I only know that if I get it locally have to get from Astrobargains or are there more importers?

Hv you consider getting the Meade DSI Pro II for your astrophotography?

Hi deacon,

I got mine locally from Astrobargains because I didn't have any visa or master bank account then.

I'm not planning to get a DSI Pro as the ETX is not suitable at all for deep-sky imaging due to the large focal ratio (f/15), and it would be troublesome to add focal reducers to it. Besides, in Singapore, it's not possible to do much deep-sky imaging due to light-pollution unless one can travel to Malaysia often.
