Thank you !

Thank you !

Ha ha more like a cat allergy ...

Thanks ! HWH

Thank you !

I believe it is plastic (acrylic or polycarbonate), with all the advantages (weight, cost) and possible dis-advantages (optics) that come with it ... Btw some high quality Canon lenses are plastic (acrylic).

Thanks Jay !

Reliable manual focus only in my case.

I am very much impressed with your setup.I also have celestron 8se.Kindly upload one video about how to take this pictures through 8se,how to setup camera,manual focus etc.

I focus with a Bahtinov mask, I 3D printed one out (paper works too) and it's very easy to use. The camera (here RisingCam) you just plug it in and then use the software that comes with it (RisingSky software) to view and adjust the image on any (Win) laptop. That is all I use, there is no magic. I don't rely on an endless collection of useless gadgets as some do. And I keep the software to a minimum, I am more interested in taking images than wasting time with nested layers of redundant software.

@@HerbsGarage What I know from your reply is always keep it simple. Thank you so much.Keep posting .

Thank you !

The 80 ED would be a good beginner choice ... I know nothing about that ES iexos 100 mount. I would also look at the SV48p achromat (which I have, see my video) paired with Skywatcher Star Adv mount (which I have), as a not-too-expensive foray into basic astrophotography. Also look at my videos for the 80 ED and 122 APO combined with the Celestron AVX mount, the latter a quality product at a reasonable price.

Thanks so much herb! I'm slowly learning more and more about astronomy! 😄

I had the iExos 100. Steer clear. The tripod is a joke, it's awfully shaky. Also, the tracking is not the greatest. Due to the driver board used for the stepper motors, the steps are fairly visible in the tracking. For anything longer than 200mm, I think that mount is a no-go. I think you'd be better off getting an EQ5 or even EQM35. I know they're more expensive, but you'll only end up getting frustrated if you go for the iExos 100 with an 80ED or 102ED. Also. 102ED is quite big, with a long-ish focal length (714) which is not really beginner friendly. I have a 102ED scope (TS, not SVOBNY, but it doesn't matter) and, without a sturdy mount, it's gonna be a challenge getting good pics. I am using it on an HEQ5 but that's a mount I got a while after dipping my toes in this hobby. Certainly not a mount to get when beginning, since it's expensive. Hunt for an EQ5 or EQM35 on the used market, you might be able to find one for less than a new iEXOS. So I'd suggest you go for the ED80, maybe even get the .8x reducer for a wider FOV, and get a different mount.

Ha ha ... Don't believe all the utter nonsense you read on the internet !

Thank you !

Thanks Guy, nice to hear from you, those were good times ! I also started in this relatively recently.

Thanks Jay !

Yes I use the SVbony flattener made for it, I forget the part number. It works very well.

@@HerbsGarage thank you so much! Mine is coming tomorrow! Can’t wait!

Note that there is another more recent video with the exact same camera

It says "204 x 10 sec frames = 34 min at 1600iso, stacked in Deep Sky Stacker (DSS) free software"

Nope, it's custom. Julius Perdana on UA-cam does have plans for the model if you want to build one yourself.

Thank you !

Note that there is another more recent video with the same camera

Me too 😂

Ha ha I agree :-)

Yes of course, any Canon EOS T2i to T7i should work. The "i" models such as the T5i etc are better since the lcd screen can be tilted, very useful on a telescope pointing up.

I have two choice either canon rebel t5 used one or zwo 585 camera which cost 400 $ .which of them I choose? Zwo 585?

Don't have the zwo ... You are looking at 18Mp for the T5 vs 8Mp for the zwo, so the Canon has a much higher resolution. A used T4i with 18Mp is $280 on Amazon.

Sorry not sure what the problem is ? You need a Celestron T adapter to attach a camera to the SE. Either directly or via a 1.25" diagonal, with it's adapters. Look for the parts on Amazon.

Thanks !

Hallo, Nein ... Mine has the reducer that came with the 122 when I ordered it last summer. It is called : "SVBONY SV209 Focal Reducer/Field Flattener 0.8x for SV550 122F7 Triplet APO Refractor Black" and appears on the svbony.com website. It is listed at $176.39 plus tax & shipping.

Thank you !

Thank you, this was in Borrego Springs Ca which is Bortle 3 on a good day. Views are better looking south and east.

Yes 15 sec subs worked well with that setup. I tried slightly longer exposures and the results were not as sharp. A very good polar alignment helps for sure.

Thank you ! None of that needed, mostly due to the Sony IMX571 camera impressive quality and dynamic range. Flats are easily done in software, here Gimp. But yes be aware of recurring internet nonsense. The telescope itself plays only a very minimal role in what you mention.

Thanks ! Alone with my Thoughts, by Esther Abrami.

@@HerbsGarage Thanks! Keep up the awesome work!

Not the same optical performance as the C8 scope, not even close. Look at the aperture difference.

@@HerbsGarage Ok I'll check it out. What about the zoom capability? Have you seen the stars from a p1000 ? Your thoughts...

Yes,I have one very capable camera with 125 x zoom.

@@kushanvyas7728 Are you seeing star ? They look like what we're seeing from telescopes ?

@@johnthomas753 I own nikon p1000.seeing star from camera.

Thank you !

Thank you !

Thanks Jay !

Thanks ! What refractor ?

I did also use the AVX mount, as it says in the video.

You can look up current pricing on Amazon.

Probably not ... The 122 is pretty hefty, I would look at a much lighter scope like the SV48p or a Celestron (or Orion or Skywatcher) 130.

@@HerbsGarage but i want to buy a triplet telescope for fantastic views

There are lighter 70-80mm triplets that fit your mount better, but I would suggest a better mount eg AVX.

Определенно нет! Для наглядности попытайтесь использовать на монтировке sw 909, они примерно одинаковой длины. Вывод: смотреть только вдоль горизонта. Теперь масса: с хорошей 2 дюймовой диакональю и широкоугольным окуляром и искателем будет около 9 кг, а это очень много для этой монтировки. Для нормального использования, вам нужна монтировка с грузоподъёмностью более 10 кг

Thank you Jay !
