More History

May 2015 Ok, so, camera without any tracking is just frustrating.

Ebay to the rescue; mainly because its a good mount for the money, I ended up buying an Altair Astro 200 mm F5 reflector on a Celestron CG5-GT Goto mount. No eyepieces or finderscope. Leisure battery for juice.

So, purchases to get it working:

Baader Red Spot finderscope - excellent.
Second hand 25mm Super plossl eyepiece - ok
New cheap 15 mm Plossl -  ok
Celestron Barlow with T thread - ok ( I thought)
T adaptor  Ebay special

First targets : Jupiter

Moon




Moon
Saturn


Tried using Registax; certainly improved the Saturn image captured using video.
