Bought a Celestron C6-A XLT SCTs 8 months ago and finally got it collimated last night after many tries. Tested it tonight. Works fine. Odd, I have several Newtonians and can collimate any of them with a laser collimator in less than one minute.

Hi, very nice video, thanks! I get it that you process a single 90s video to get the very nice single image. What I still don't get it, how do you make the final small video, and how many 90s videos do you need for it? Do you process manually each of them with the same workflow, or can you automatize the steps?

Hello from France!!👋 I don't speak much English but I watched your beautiful video. My question is: How did you manage to have the option at the bottom left of registrax. From 27 minutes and 50 seconds of your video ?? 😯 I don't have this option 🤔🤔 Very good video. Thank you and good planetary observations 👌👌

Thank You , Very nice. I always have imaged the hard way - very hard. Many years , many cameras , many scopes. Magnify Jupiter for example until it is about 4 mm or more on your sensor , On a 13'' monitor full screen , Jupiter would be a little bigger than a baseball. Shutter trigger in hand , focuser remote in the other hand , eyes glued to the monitor , I'd shoot about 800 pics of Jupiter over the course of 4 hours. Keep about 10 maybe less , some nights 2 . Each pic had to be good enough to print and look good at 8x10 look great at 5x7 and look incredible at 4x6 . Then one day , My friend stacked my images , Well we often would make prints 16x20 of Saturn , Jupiter , Sun spots , Crater Plato etc... We went so many years not stacking , setting the bar way too high . After many years n different scopes , I had Royce Optical Laboratory in Connecticut make me a 10'' f/8 1/20th wave mirror , Which I made a direct imaging scope , No secondary , Just 1/20th right to the surface of the sensor , Often w 5x power mate , or mates , w eyepiece projection , all kinds of combinations . This was Florida , On muggy , swampy , Humid summer nights , The air would often be so steady , I could get away with running that mirror at 80x per inch , Sometimes Jupiter would actually swamp the monitor ! We could often run a Takahashi fs 102 at 110x per inch. The air columns would be this steady for moments of 8 seconds followed by maybe 4 seconds of slightly not steady followed again by maybe 10 seconds of perfect seeing . Landing Jupiter on a 4 megapixel sensor and using slightly more than 2 M makes for a nice print . When you stack say 20 of them , Well , It makes it all worth it. Thank You.

Buen Video😀. I want to use the baader astrosolar OD 3.8 filter combined with a baader solar continuum.

It looks like 4:53 more exensuve to customize my telescope than to customize my Harley. What have I gotten myself into?

I got this mount for my solarmaxiii. We will see how it works. I turned on the motor and then turned off. When I try to turn back on, it will not come on. Doing something wrong?

Thank you so much for this video. I am restarting my planetary imaging after about a decade and had forgotten EVERYTHING. This was so helpful. Thanks a bunch!

My RGB option is grayed out and my image are end doesn’t have color, I’m using a color camera with debater off

I got so angry at him putting his fingers all over the Baader film. Bahahaha stop that!

Hey, What values do you use for red and Blue in your white Balance Setting in ASIcap?

Excellent video

Wow excellent video

Hey whenever I try to take photos of Jupiter with my ASI482mc and even when my ex source is down to 1 or 8 ms it still is horribly overexposed and no detail is visible, it’s been quite frustrating and was wondering if you know what’s wrong?

Thanks! High Point owes you a commission-you just sold one. And a couple of extra pieces. It’ll be much easier to get this going once it arrives; thanks for making the video.

Great video, thank you. Is it possible to share those images so we can try to do the post-processing on our end

Is Baader vario finder the cheaper alternative? It's also much lighter.

I may have to buy this for my Coronado solarmax 40

28:10 From okayish to magical! That's the money shot.

Thanks!

Broken Bow, I had plans to meet friends there to see the solar eclipse. Alas, I couldn't go. Did you?

Scary storm. Rode it out in gentilly.

Excellent video..I had ONE complaint (3 yrs later)....say what you're gonna do before you move. Makes things easier to follow

Great review my friend and you explained everything nicely for me and I’m a newbie in this hobby. Thank you very much

The eye is very stable at its peak

1:37 Florida: "He's just standing there... MENACINGLY"

2024, Edge HD version is $3k. is inflation real?

Why do they give a crappy tripod mount for the most expensive HD but give a beefier mount to the cheaper scopes? 🤷‍♀

3 years later and the price is 50 percent more...

You're probably not monitoring this 3yr old 37:52 video that I came across but I have to comment. WOW .. information overload for this 74yr old beginner. I'm saving this for when I hopefully will be able to do anything closer to what you just did! I bought an Inspiron 14 7445 2-in-1 just for this purpose. I hope I didn't buy short of what's needed. Celestron 8SE bundle then purchased AI585 MC Pro, adaptor, Asiair plus 256G & focal reducer. Other items also. Im finding my new hobby is very overwhelming at my age. Thanks for the video & links..!

I would hate to have you work on anything of mine.

Could I ask what eyepieces you used? I'm genuinely disappointed because this is my first telescope and I didn't know that all of the example pictures I saw online were processed with software. Anyways, I'm taking it to northern Michigan in October where there's zero light pollution and I really want to show my family Saturn and some galaxies, but I'm afraid they will be like "that's it?". Is there an eyepeice that you would recommend that might make everything "pop" or look more impressive? Thank you 👌 Edit: I've been using the included 13mm and 40mm plossl with a televue 2x Barlow. Saturn blew my mind the first time I saw it, but it's still ridiculously tiny. More than anything I really want to see galaxies.

And what is with the sharpness on the edge of the field of view?

Neat.

Just got my first ZWO camera for my 127mm MAK. Thanks for this, really helpful and clear

Very helpful video thank you very much!🙌🏼

What gain/exposure configuration are you using?

thanks for the video

Nice video 👍

Nice.

Кухонная лопатка стоит гораздо дешевле)

Hi, I wanted to ask a question. I bought the same adapter and filter that you recommended, but when I tried to use the telescope, it couldn't align and I could see the reflection of the spider being projected in the image. What could this be?

Thanks for the video. I use Sky Safari often. I will try that.

It became a cat 5 cause Russia launched thousands of missiles in the skies and waters in the Caribbean and Atlantic oceans look it up those missiles can get up to 7,5000 degrees

Windy.

He has made a simple aneroid barometer , but the beaker should have a vacuum in it , temperature will greatly affect it.

I remember this. True story I’m A Gator fan and my brother in law is a hurricanes fan and this was the year our teams played each other. The Gators won that year and I joke with him about the Hurricane missing Florida and the Florida Gators beating the hurricanes at the same time.

Pretty sure celestron filters use baader film. Unless they cheapened out to mylar. If the view is blue, then it is mylar. Glass filters tend to have a warm tone and a tad of softness from the glass, but they are more durable except if dropped where glass can crack, and film will survive unless punctured by a sharp object

I find standard scts pretty sharp to the edge with naglers
