    Got a new sub. Quality content, hope you grow fast.
    I recently got a Orion Starblast 4.5, an old Celestron Advanced GT mount, and have an old Nikon D7000 I hope to point to the sky.
    I got here because I may be able to increase my telescope budget soon, and the William Optics Z61/73 have my attention.
    I'm looking to create an 'ideal' compact light tracking rig with an iOpteron CEM26.
    I'd love to know what these scopes could be pushed to do. Something like M51.

      Thanks TevisC and thanks for visiting the channel. You are certainly off to a great start. Getting a quality tracking mount is key and first on the list if you are going to get serious about deepsky. If you are going after m51 which is a great target since you don't need any special filters to capture it. You want to go for as much aperture as possible. Wider aperture =more detail and m51 has lots of detail. That galaxy from our perspective is small but it's bright. You shouldn't have any problems getting it with either of those 2 scopes however if I were to recommend one to you and those are the choices the z73 would probably be your best bet. It has a wider aperture and more reach especially on your nikon aps-c sized sensor. I've also seen great photos of m51 . I would spend some time looking in stellarum. It's a free program you can download to your computer. It will allow you to frame your target and see what it will look like with the equipment you choose. If you haven't done that already. I've also started to upload my photos on Instagram and I use both scopes quite often. Visit me there to see some samples.
      Again thanks for visiting and enjoy your dark skies!

    How did you auto level ?

    • @astronotna
      @astronotna  2 роки тому

      Depends what you mean by auto level. What part are you referring to?

    • @freddylq67
      @freddylq67 2 роки тому

      Sorry I meant auto level adjustment that you did in Photoshop for each object.
