New color digital telescope camera for last xmas
Sep 1, 2014 08:37:22 #
It has been quite a journey for this" handicapped man", I got a new camera Levenhuk T510NG color digital w/ rolling shutter and 1/2.5 in. sensor. I've been told that I couldn't do any photography to only use of my left hand. Ap I don't have to touch the camera while snaping pics or taking videos. I'm having trouble getting my images on the laptop to come to a tight focus through my Z10 reflector telescope. Here's my latest from last night in poor conditions with high humidity and clouds.

twiga if you love all things astronomical, then what is holding you back ? I'm living a dream since before my accident in 74' and 75' I recieved my 1st scope which I no longer have 50mm Tasco refractor on a alt/az mount. I have a good support group to help me get r done. There's no better satisfaction than seeing your image on a laptop screen where you can snap pictures or take short videos and process them with the free software from the net. Dreams really do come true ! I started with a $200 imaging setup , scope, eq1 mount w/ motor drive and usb camera almost 1 1/2 yrs. ago. I still image the moon but once I learn my used lxd55 goto mount I'll be moving to planets and DSO's with the proper tracking.

Try to let nothing to get in your way my friend.
There is always a way to get around your problems.

Since sept. I've been able to improve my quality of pics greatly with the manual Z10 reflector. I'm going to put my 80eq refractor on my new addition 8 in. astrograph newt and use it as my auto guide scope with either my 1/4 in.chip SSUE ll or Meade Pictor CCD or 1/2.5 in. chip Levenhuk T510NG color digital cam st4 adaptor plugged into my autostar . What yall think? Do ya think it'll work?
