Looks like a great camera / lens combo. A couple of questions for you please: 1. How sensitive is the lens to temp change? 2. How do you change focus remotely? Thanks.

Parabens Pedro! Excellent presentation of Seestar 50 capabilities and benefits of the integrated concept of primer to astrophotography. Benefits in ease of use, small learning curve and small investment of time and money to achieve results. Congratulations!

How much faster is FBPP than WBPP then?

Ola,vc achq q vale a pena o investimento num desses?

Muito obrigado Pedro Re Realmente uma Grande ajuda 🙏

Is the Coronado SM60mm that much better than the SM II 60mm?

I saw the same sunspots through an off-axis f/10 Newtonian with white light film and it was magnificent.

Beautiful white light shots. How do you determine focus? With poor seeing, I can't get it spot on.

Hello, which tripod did you use for Seestar? Thank you for reply. :)

Thanks for Sharing!!!!

Pedro... King of solar imaging and catching the bandwith, c'mon... sell me a 60mm coronado ETALON for double stacking that you have many. I'm corious and need an upgrade after almost one year.

Incredible imaging and equipment. Thanks Pedro!

where to buy an solar filter to an newtonian 8'' telescope ?

Why the ERF is slightly inclined? Even on my ETALON I noticed just today morning. I opened the ETALON you know. I pulled away the pivotal cone and reattached it in the center. And that's that.

Beautiful beast and pictures mate !

Very good, Pedro RE.

Hi Pedro. I have an issue with my CORONADO III. There's a cone attached with glue inside the front red lens right?. It's dead centered. Well certainly with the heat this cone drifted 3 or 4 mm away towards the ground due gravity of course (Usually I shoot around 9 am). I'm able to see even the glue mark left by the drifting. Last time the camera registered 51° C. Till now I didn't notice significately problems but I'm a bit worried about. Firstable maybe it could perform better and I don't know it. What's the function of this cone? Major problems it can give? From now I use it only with a vent (an house ventilator) at max speed towards the front lens. Thank you. Marco.

Great captures and scope. What bortle skies were the images taken at?

Beautiful images. On some of those the seeing conditions must have been great because they were really sharp! 🔭 ☀️ 👍

I used to own one of these. Regret selling it!

Que máquina! Parabéns Pedro ;)

Great ! 😎👍

😮

😎👍

Excsume sir, if you have a big boy, a 150mm refractor and you put on a 40 mm etalon, the resolution, so the solution of details will drop as if your telescope is a tiny 40 mm aperture scope right? Or am I wrong?

So Pedro Pè is old guy we can all appreciate that.

Magnificent

Pedro Pé your capture movies is already better than my processed and finished image. It's not fair.

Brilliant

Hi! I would recommend that you don't use CLAHE images for stacking, but rather use the "disk" ones, _then_ do contrast enhancement like CLAHE or something. You could even use the batch mode for this, with a script. That is to say, use the "batch mode", then select custom process and use this image math script: ``` # # Performs stacking of several images processed in batch mode # [params] # banding correction width and iterations bandingWidth=25 bandingIterations=3 # autocrop factor cropFactor=1.1 # contrast adjustment gamma=1.2 # doppler shift doppler_shift=3 [tmp] corrected = fix_banding(img(0);bandingWidth;bandingIterations) bluewing = fix_banding(img(-doppler_shift);bandingWidth;bandingIterations) redwing = fix_banding(img(doppler_shift);bandingWidth;bandingIterations) [outputs] decon=rl_decon(corrected) blue=rl_decon(bluewing) red=rl_decon(redwing) [[batch]] stacked=stack(decon) stacked_blue=stack(blue) stacked_red=stack(red) [outputs] stretch=auto_contrast(stacked;gamma) details=draw_obs_details(draw_solar_params(stretch)) colorized=colorize(asinh_stretch(stretch;500;5);"H-alpha") doppler=linear_stretch(saturate(rgb(stacked_red;(stacked_red+stacked_blue)/2;stacked_blue);1.1)) doppler_protus=linear_stretch(disk_fill(doppler)) ``` You should get much better results.

If I use a cooled camera in Firecapture is there a way to control my cameras cooling? If not could I use ASCAP to control cooling?

Fantastico 😊

Hi I own a Lunt 152mm but can’t seem to get focus. Any help?

Superbe

Maravilha

Perdro Pedro Pedro Pè!! Is that me or Lunt is much better than the CORONADO? What's your decision Don.

Images magnifiques, et belle musique de fond. Bravo.

Um trabalho maravilhoso. Essas novas câmeras estão revolucionando o mercado..

👍😎

Muito bom Pedro

Super Cool 👌 🔭📡

Nice telescope for beginners 👌 🔭

Ahah nice. Always unexpected. I have an annoying halo or ring all around the limb when I pop out the prominences no matter how. Have you the same problem to deal with? At the beginning for sure.

Excelente introdução ao Nina, os meus parabéns aos promotores. Pessoalmente começei no APT, passei para o sistema Air (no qual não vou deixar) , mas ja começei a fotografar com o Nina. Para ter "liberdade" no hardware neste lindo Hobby que amo.

Damn it. How you get that contrast from cold dark orange to that HOT bright yellow? A tip. I don't ask any more. Just a tip. And those details... I understand the aperture etc etc. Of course you need a big sensor with that Navarone nazi cannon plus the daystar wich is something similar a 4x barlow.

Outstanding. Outstanding and outstanding and outstanding!! and outstanding again!! Pedro... why don't you... Lissen to me an italian frozen guy: Have you any problems of Newtons rings in close up images with barlow lens for example? Do you take flats when you capture the full disk? If so how? With the trash bag?? About the night sky images I do skyflat. Isn't suppose they have to works either with my coronado, so a t-shirt instead of a bag at the opposite side of the sky? Do you reccomend me to buy another etalon for double stacking the 60/400? Is DS actually another world and the pain (about money) worth it?

Espectacular!!

Amazing!

Which combination did you prefer?

Superb goddamnit!! The 178 mono is out of market right now I need it. What do you think about the ASI 120 mono for a little CORONADO 60/400? Has the same features of the 224MC color but monochrome. Maybe a bit noisy or slow.
