I shoot with a similar scope the Astro Tech AT65EDQ Quad paired with a ZWO ASI533 camera and very happy with the images they produce. I also use the older AZ-GTi mount for a small Mead Mak. for viewing only... Thanks

Thanks for video Nick - very informative.
I'm using a stock DSLR camera (Canon, unmodified) through an AstroTech 70ED scope on a star tracker and was wondering how rewarding would the Rosette Nebula be? I wasn't sure how much detail I would be able capture without using the various SHO filters?

[@AstroExploring]

Filters won’t really help on an in modified DSLR as the camera ignores about 80% of the red light. Best off getting it modified and then buy a narrowband filter like the L-eXtreme to isolate the right wavelengths

Do you have any links to reviews of the Askar ? I’m thinking Redcat 51 or the Askar.

[@AstroExploring]

Not of that particular one as it’s only just been released but if you look up the other scopes in the range you’ll find some reviews
