I agree , i think this vid is the only one on yt that has done the D2 vs D3 that ive seen so far and what a massive difference , must admit im really excited once ive sold my rig il be buying the D3
superb vid and its nice to see a real time side by side images using same settings which ive not seen anyone do in a review of the D3 as most reviews are aimed at D3 vs other makes , also just goes to show how far the D3 has come compared to the D2
@@SkySpies i couldnt agree more mate , im actually thinking of selling my HEQ5pro mount to go down this road as i dont have a scope i just use nikon Z6 and 600mm lens along with NINA which works so well The cost of a dedicated full rig cost way to much where as the D3 does it all and looking at the data it would give DSLR images a good run for the money and at a fraction of cost just seems like a no brainer tbh
Have the D2 and s50.took the D2 on holidays for daytime solar and landscape.dso for night.bortle 5.carryon hand luggage.staff at hotel were amazed at results and how reasonable it was.
I must say i like the external filters on the D2 ... also it may be more convenient on the D3, but I'm a little dubious about mechanical movement on the image train, eventually mechanical movement wears out components
i never thought about the ware n tear , i should imagine these units would go through extreme testing , my thought was how would it cope on frosty nights , but did read somewhere there is a built in dew heater though id air on the side of caution and put a dew strap around the unit body in such conditions , .. again these things may have already been tested 🤷
Sir, very good review. I have the D3 and love it. It’s a great little travel scope. My only question is, how do you access Mosaic Mode for Astro images? I don’t see any indication on my unit. Thank you again. Excellent video
brilliant video, thanks for taking the time to compare images so thoroughly

The travel aspect is a huge part of the appeal for me, thanks for stopping by!
How do you get the mosaic mode?
Great video!
Thanks!
Great video my friend. Good job. I'm still waiting to my D3. Best regards, Guy.

Those are really good points, hopefully they last.
Fantastic images
Thank you! Cheers!

I emailed the company and they said it will be a part of a update coming soon, i cant wait for that
Thank you sir. I can’t Wait either.
Wait... Mosaic mode? Beta?😮
Alot of mechanical. Sounds great until filter gets stuck? 😅
Nothing new here. Just a lot of talk about nothing important.

Why watch why comment ?

Thanks for the engagement!
which model do you own then - bet you aint got the D3!!!, real dwarf owners are a bit more courteous
