    5 hidden secrets of the DWARF 2 smart telescope. Is it worth it or not?
    To use 2" filters you need 2 adapters:
    1.25" to 49mm Step Up Ring Adapter: amzn.to/3vBOYpX
    49-48mm Step-Down Ring Adapter: amzn.to/3Gfq6JE

    Well, as I was packing up my Astrophotography rig including my iOptron Mount, Orion Refractor, DSLR eyepiece projection tube, eyepieces, calibration and ZWO tracking camera, Astroberry, Shoestring Astronomy FCUSB, Car Battery, 12v to USBC/USB Power Supply, Camera, Cords, and Laptop I decided maybe the Dwarf II would be ideal for a night like tonight. It's partly cloudy, no guarantee of a clear view of Comet C/2022 E3 ZTF. After reviewing the video of Tiago getting a successful photo of the comet with Dwarf II I figured I'll give the Dwarf II a try. I'll update the channel with my findings.

    Thanks Tiago. I think given the very small aperture, you cannot set too high your expectations. Certainly The Horsehead nebula and Thors Helmut are really a bit beyond this scopes intended target range but you were able to see them which is impressive. Since it appears that it tracks to compensate for the rotation of the Earth, how easy is it to set it up? I’m asking because this would be a fun scope to take on trips and speed of set up is important.

    Tiago, I created a Dwarf II configuration for Stellarium, I created an entry for Dwarf II wide, Dwarf II Telephoto, and the Sony IMX415 sensor. I wanted to get a sense of what was viewable with Dwarf II.
    Can you capture an image of "The Lost Jewel of Orion" with your Dwarf II to see if it matches my expectations ? The Sculptor Galaxy looks like it will be a a great target and "The Witch Head Nebula" may be may be a viable target too !
