    Great video and amazing results I also did the pinwheel but with a 714mm and I also loved the the smaller Galaxies in the background

    I love a wide field Galaxy image. Lets the viewer feel the vastness of space. Nice image, Tim. Thanks for taking time from your studies to put together a video.

    Nice Image Tim, I actually quite like wide field images of galaxies, it amazes me just how many galaxies in the fov can be captured with even a small scope like a Red Cat 51, which funnily enough I also used on April 10 to image M101.

    As you demonstrate, one can get good images of galaxies with a small scope. I’ve done so with my WO Redcat 61 (300mm) combined with the ZWO ASI533mc and got a good image of the Pinwheel galaxy last year that clearly revealed the supernova that was discovered in late May. Also, although you didn’t elaborate, I think you said you used sheets of paper to help get the proper exposure when creating calibration frames with your gear. If I am interpreting this correctly, I think that means for your flats, you put a few sheets of paper between the light pad and the end of your scope to adjust the too-bright light from the pad. If I’ve got this correct, that’s exactly what I do because the lowest illumination from my pad is too bright for the exposure length I want for my flats. I am after a minimum of two seconds of exposure for my flats and prefer something between three and four seconds.

    Nice shot! The wide field scope is actually perfect for Markarian's chain :)

    Welcome back friend!!!! Just my 2 cents you don’t need to level that precise your tripod, just the smartphone level is enough

    • @AstroAddict
      @AstroAddict  3 месяца назад +1

      I see, but I do it for the fast polar alignment. That usually only takes 2 minutes if the tripod is level. Adjusting the azimuth takes most of those 2 minutes

      @@AstroAddict Hi, just looked at the antenna link and it looks wrong tome - it is without the pin inside but when I look on my ASI AirPlus, I do have a pin at antenna. Or did I miss something?

      Ah yes, indeed. I did not link the exact one since that link was for the german amazon. I corrected the link now.

    Hi, why you can't use the ASI2600MC duo with a large telescope? I use it with my RC8

    • @AstroAddict
      @AstroAddict  3 месяца назад

      My 'large' telescope is a 102/714 refractor. The problem is that the field flattener has a M42 adapter, which is not enough to illuminate the guiding sensor. M48 minimum

    You don't need to level anything if you use an equatorial mount
