My b day😊😊

How come it somes nebulae very crisp, but Jupiter is a small blurry dot?. Is it just the huge size of Nebulae that make the difference?

Light pollution filters are still aimed at the sodium street lights we had thirty years ago. Unless you live in East Berlin, street lighting is now broadband white LED-based, and the pollution filter will be nothing like as useful as one would wish. Still a great telescope though, and of course once the add-on lenses start to appear planetary photography will become possible. One simple feature that is missing, and should be added is a standard filter thread for the front aperture. The solar filter could use this for a bit more security of fixing. And one more again - more megapixels please. Sensors have improved massively since these were designed.

I know this is old video but the amount of info is wonderful, thank you. However, I would not consider $1200 a beginner price range, specially for 4 years ago.

Hello guys.. im torn between the eqm35 pro and the star adventurer gti.. i know this mount has more payload capacity but heard it has issues..what do you guys recommend based on experience. Thanks

Very cool! Thanks for the video.

Why whould i be so stupid in buying one of them, i can look at the moon or almost any sky body live right now as i coment, and most important free of charge ! Its for the people who doesnt actually into astronomy, just a fantazy intrest, and most of what is to showoff as its becoming more and more a norm in the world, just a big show off.

Hello. I wonder if i could use either to find thin crescent moon (hilal)?

And the moons name was chrysalis

Hallo, ein super tolles Video Gratulation. eine Frage: ich habe ein Maksutov Teleskop 1400/100 und möchte mir gerne eine Planetenkamera für den Mond zulegen. Welche Kamera würdest du mir empfehlen?. Als Nachführung habe ich die Star Adventurer GTi. Da ich noch ein Anfänger bin benötige ich deine Hilfe und bedanke mich jetzt schon. der 2. Punkt wäre dann: welche Kamera würdest du für den Jupiter oder den Saturn empfehlen? sollte ich dann mit dem 2-fach Barlow noch zusätzlich arbeiten oder bringt das nichts mehr? in der Hoffnung auf eine positive Lösung verbleibe ich bis bald Uri

Very close call. PI seems to save faint structure a little better than DSS. But other than that it's very close.

Question: do either of these productions have Polaris as a target? I ask because I shoot astro star trails centered on Polaris (using a Sony mirrorless camera), and the polar alignment is never quite 100%.

Question: do any of the Vaonis productions have Polaris as a target? I ask because I shoot astro star trails centered on Polaris (using a Sony mirrorless camera), and the polar alignment is never quite 100%. Do any of the Vaonis predictions have Polaris as a target?

I’m in my binge watching CZcams phase and just got The Backyard Astronomer’s Guide, as well, which I highly recommend. I’m going to spend some time digesting what I’ve seen. In the meantime, I just ordered a pair of Canon 15x50 IS binoculars. If I had to choose today, I’d get exactly what you showed at 4:17 , the 8” EdgeHD tube with a Skywatcher mount (though I may go with the HEQ5 instead of the EQ6-R Pro, because I plan to convert a van to camp in for my retirement in a couple years and think that beefier mount may be to heavy for me to set up after a while. From what I can see, Celestron has the 8” SCT dialed in, but their mounts are a bit dodgy (e.g., plastic gears). Skywatcher seems to do the best midrange Equatorial mounts. It seems to me that’s the sweet spot in the 8” telescope market at the moment. Thanks for the video!

Do you have to use Ascom

Any chance you can make an update video? This is great but obviously the app interface has changed.

A few years ago I was thinking, do I have to make my own mount harmonic drive eq mount (and perhaps make my own company) because there was no one to buy. The thing is the gear reduction and weight limitations and periodic errors are still not good enough. But then again I don't even own a telescope.

Great vid! Would love to see you do the vespera pro! :D

Do people really believe this is real footage?

I have an AM5 and in decent seeing conditions, I can get down to .35" RMS with an OAG. I typically image between 300mm-600mm, but I recently took ownership of an EdgeHD 8. Imaging at 1400mm has presented a bit of a challenge in that the extra weight and bulk of the scope has pushed that number up to .70" RMS with similar seeing conditions - and that is with the counterweight. Additionally, if there is ANY wind, those numbers go well past 1.0" and the subs are trash. Consequently I am considering getting a heavier mount like a CEM40 or EQR6 to have for less than ideal conditions when I want to shoot at 800mm or longer with my current scopes. My other option is to BIN my camera (2600MC & MM), but that defeats the purpose of shooting longer focal lengths in my opinion.

This is so epic

Hello, I am using it with an Askar 180Pro. I have doubts with the Offset value, I use Gain 252. What do you recommend? Greetings.

Another great review, thanks for sharing. Is a PE160 pier extension needed or is it ok as is. I'm using an AM3.

I am using the SvBony SV106 60mm guide scope with a Bresser GPCMOS02000KPA Toupket camera and a SvBony 205 camera. The Bresser GPCMOS02000K is a bit to work with, i still do not know how to get images displayed on my laptop but I will keep trying. Thanks for the video!

Ik ben een beginnende Astrophotographer. Ik zelf heb nu een bresser 150/1400 gekocht. Maar jammer dat je hier in Nederland veel licht vervuiling is, ookal is het in Limburg wat minder.

I live right next to a motorway in the middle of a city in uk would these be a waste of money for me or would I still get good results? 😊

high end content, thank you for your efforts to show us that stuff, absolutely great Video!

I just bought the .7 reducer today, after 2 attempts at imaging at F10 and meeting with failure due to not enough stars for stacking. I am hopeful that the reducer will correct my issues. Until now, I’ve only images with HyperStar, F2 and the images are too small for some targets.

Hello wido could you do a video for advanced mounts.. the big boys like cgx-l and similar , thanks

Excellent Video. I love my Vespera 1, looking forward for my Vespera Pro that should arrive "soon". But that S50 did a better job on the moon, I think Vaonis could improve that part. Now if only we didnt have 95% of couldy nights :)

Just got the ZWO ASi678 today (6/19/2024) looking forward to using it on Saturn to night. Have been using the ZWO ASi 224 and the increase in pixels and the smaller 2 microns will help with resolution. Using a Celestron Omni XL 120mmx1000mm achromat refractor and a 2X barlow. on a Meade XL70 mount with motor on the RA axis.

Well by the time it probably be like a blink

No hope for a firmware update for landscape mode?

Wish it had an eye piece too to view through .

Thank you for your video. Very informative and I will be purchasing the 585. What is the name of the music you used? I loved it.

One thing all aspirants of a smart telescope need to remember that Jupiter, Saturn and Mars are best done only in standard GoTo telescopes. Sun and Moon is fine BUT selling Smart Telescope to beginners must include this sidenote.

The fact that the tracking the birds did not work well when the whole flock flew is exactly why the birds fly in flocks!

Hi, I am new at your channel. Will these telescopes work without an internet connection? Thanks for the answer. Groeten,

What size is your aperature? I’m trying to decide which telescope to get. Thanks!

You say at 2:00 that the apo is “ nearly twice as big “, obviously referring to the diameter. It should be noted that the area of the circle gathering light of the 80mm is actually 2.56 times as big as that of the 50mm. Just a reminder to those new people watching that the light gathering ability of telescopes “grows” roughly twice as fast as the diameter.

I'm sure they don't want to.....plenty of laughs just watching us !

VIdeo starts here 5:30

If you got a computer and stack, the 500$ can make such pictures too. Just needs more work, but still doesn't mean you need a 5000$ telescope.

thanks for the review! clear skies!

Very cool!

Thank you great video

I just got into this hobby a few weeks ago. while I was searching best telescopes to get and watching a ton of videos and reviews, I went with a 6se scope. I like goto functionality but then realized I wanted to hook up my dslr to it for astro. After more numerous videos and seeing that it takes a whole lot more $ to get into this hobby, I kinda wished I opted for a s50. I really want to do some dsp but do not have the equipment, money or knowledge to get results quick. I tend to get into things on impulse and realize you need a lot of patience. great reviews on both devices. one of the items would be a good choice before you go for a big scope. It is very frustrating at first and you want to make sure you still have an interest in the hobby.
