Here is the place to talk about all those equipment(Telescope, Mounts, Eyepieces, etc...) you have. Not sure which scope/eyepiece is best for you? Trash it out here!

Hi Kimo,

That is an interesting idea. Do you intend to use the 2 CCD cameras at the same time in recording the image? Have heard of such setup. Will be watching this space.

yes, if possible then I can access two types of focal length with Reduced and non reduced. can be imaging large nebula, galaxy and planetary neb..ha..ha. this is good for fixed setup.
