Trevor, in my mind, you and many of your companion Astrophotography channels are rockstars. As a 70 year old retired aerospace engineer the information you collectively have provided saved me money, reduced the learning curve, and in the end have amplified the overall satisfaction and enjoyment of this captivating hobby. I’m still trying to improve my image processing chops. The good news is almost every one of your episodes I pick up a tidbit or technique. I look forward to you next installment.

Here's a tip for extreme cold. Take an ACE Bandage and wrap your Scope and Dew Heater Straps with it. Works like a charm at keeping that ambient heat from escaping. PS: Hey Trevor I built a really cool battery box power supply utilizing my deep cycle boat battery box lid. It gives you 6 cigarette adapter connections on top if your interested. Reach out to me and I'll send you the specs.

Love the channel! You kept me interested as I spent nearly 2 years learning and accumulating and refining my equipment. In my limited experience with back focus. Everyone tends to reference the camera requirements. In actuality, as you stated, the back focus depends on the first lense in the optic train. My field flattner required 64mm of back focus. Using the ZWO camera requirement of 55mm it wouldn't even focus. This basic statement " check the camera requirements" just threw more frustration in the process. I have read many post where folks are suffering from the same frustrations. Then when you think you got it just right you buy a filter and figure it out again...Thanks again!

Power supply: What has worked perfectly for me is running two 12 volt marine batteries connected by 4 gauge wire in a parallel hooked up to an inverter (1500watt). All of this can be found at Canada Tire. I run an AVX mount, laptop, 2nd portable monitor, cell phone, portable speaker and a DSLR all night without a single power glitch. I charge the batteries the next day with a Noco Genius G4 charger. In total it's not cheap and it's not to pretty or light weight but it's been 100% reliable. Caution: when tightening bolts be careful not to contact the wrench from one post to another... it can cause an arc which can melt your tools and scare the pants of you. I now use a socket wrench to avoid this. Also when disconnecting or connecting be very mindful that your hooking up to the right posts. Lots of videos on KZbin on how to create a parallel set up with multiple batteries and how to manage them. My set up does all add up in cost but it's been worth it. Both batteries are typically at 25% after the entire night of use. They'll be easily charged to 100% and ready to go the following night as long as you put them on the charger early enough in the day. Thanks Trevor for all your vids, so much of my knowledge comes directly from you... glad you keep the old videos up as my gear matches a lot of your old technology. Thanks for addressing the power issue, I haven't seen much on this subject and I learned by starting fires, melting tools, getting bad advice and generally lacking common sense.

As always a great video and so nice to hear your unbiased opinions on these topics. Many questions can't really be answered since there are so many variables to consider. So I have to ask this one based solely on your experience. Question is how have you managed to achieve balance using small widefield refractors (Raptor, Redcat and other small FL scopes) using larger mounts such as the EQ6 R Pro? Smaller mounts and star trackers seem to be more easily influenced by uneven weight distribution while the heavier mounts are less obvious. I appreciate your advice or really anyone that reads this and have dealt with this issue.

HI Trevor, Can you please clarify something for me. I polar aligned (in Australia) using the PoleMaster for the first time ever! and I wasn't sure what speed to use on the RA Motor when tracking. Is 2x Normal Speed? Or 4x. What SLEW speed reflects the rotation of the earth? Also, should you not use the fine adjustment knobs when the motor is running because you can damage the motor? Instead use the buttons on the controller to fine adjust / center onto your star?

Great video Trevor but surely the number one question has to be OSC or Mono?
@highasheaven9239
@highasheaven9239 3 жыл бұрын
Depends on many factors. To keep it simple : easy, quick and cheap experience : osc ; better detail, takes longer to shoot and process, expensive : mono. Osc are much less sensitive than mono, but they're cheap and can still do narrowband (I do Ha and O3 with a modified Canon 100d). Mono are just going to get you better detail, they're super sensitive, and for Ha for example they capture over 4x the light in the same time, because of the Bayer matrix, which counterbalances the time spent on editing (multiple channels, color mapping etc...) and shooting (changing filters, refocusing if you don't have a motorized focuser). The images are CCD-grade with mono, but it's very expensive overall (mono camera generally 50% more expensive, filter wheel, filters (R,G,B,S,H,O), automated focuser, that gets you around $2000 for asi 1600mm/8 position fw, filters and focuser). Also depends on your shooting style : lightweight portable rig, go osc. Observatory / at home : go mono if you have the money and the motivation. Mono is more efforts, but it's really worth it imo

Small comment about gear when shooting in the cold: Batteries drain a looot faster when the temperature gets low. If it's really cold, your cables can also become brittle and simply snap and break, so be careful when you're tucking them away after they've been outside for a few hours.

I usually use UV filters on all my lenses for everyday photography but are they any good for astrophotography or are they unnecessary blocking part of the light comming from the night sky? Thanks.

Select either Milky Way or Astro Deep Space. Milky Way most any camera and lens, 16mm most common wide, and a f/4 lens will be great. Filters not really needed anymore due to cities using led lighting. Knowing Post Processing software is most key, Lr is a basic and most used. Milky Way can be done from a lit parking lot or over a small lit town as long as the sky is dark above even with city sky glow so no need to go out west it is best over the ocean along the east coast and Gulf. Early season MW arc Feb to Jun with pano gear. Just have fun.

On a telescope there is no infinity setting or indicator because it depends entirely on the back focus spacing Trevor described. Even on camera lenses, the infinity mark is usually inaccurate, requiring manual focusing. And new auto focus lenses have no focus scale at all. Focusing, as Trevor rightly points out, is the toughest task, but once you’ve done it with your gear you are off to the races!

I keep telling people about focusing: 1. Focus during the day. Find a tree or chimney just a few streets down. Focus on it. If you can't reach focus, you won't be able to reach focus at night. Find out why you can't, you probably gonna need more spacers or extension tubes between your camera and telescope. If you can focus on it, keep that focus! At night, you are a few turns away on the focuser from star focus! Inward. You gonna have to turn inward , so your telescope focuser tube moves in , if you focused on a close object during the day. If the moon is out, focus on the Moon!

Man I want one of those big Celestrons so bad. The thing is where I live it is hard to sell this kind of stuff when you outgrow them, so as a beginner I prefer buying more advanced stuff so it lasts forever. I know, I know, a beginner should buy a more basic telescope but again, where I live it is hard to sell this kind of stuff so I prefer taking the hit of a bigger learning curve than buying/selling every time I outgrow something. I live in Costa Rica by the way, glad to know you were here at some point. Hopefully you went near a volcano or something as those spots are pretty high and far from light pollution.

When would you choose a 4nm OIII filter over a 6.5mm? Same with variations of Ha filters, what's the benefit of one over the other and how would we know which to go for?
@highasheaven9239
@highasheaven9239 3 жыл бұрын
Lower wavelength number means lower parasite wavelength. Ha emits at exactly 656.281nm, which means the best filter possible would capture ONLY this wavelength. Unfortunately it's not possible to do, and the best we can do it isolate a certain part of the spectrum. The lower the number (3nm vs 12nm), the smaller the part of the spectrum we are letting through the filter. Ideally, you would get the tightest filter your budget allows (like 3nm chroma ones (up to $1500 per filter)), but since fast F-ratios shift the wavelength a tiny bit, your luxurious filters would only work for your slow telescopes, and an F2 lens/rasa would need other filters. If you don't have a fast OTA, then get the smallest pass through filter you can, ideally the 4 of even 3nm. But to be fair, while going from 12 to 6 makes a bit of a difference, going from 6 to 4 isn't worth it I think, and 3nm are 'reserved' to those with observatories and rigs that are 10-15K+. The point is, get 6nm (even 12 are really nice), and get the right size (depending on your sensor size, 1.25", 2", etc, you don't want your filter to block the corners of your photos!). Brands don't matter to much imo, but astronomik never disappointed me. Clip in vs round : clip in if you have a DSLR and don't plan on changing soon, round if you have a dedicated camera. Mounted vs unmounted : unmounted if you know you're only going to use them with a filter wheel ever, mounted if you may thread them on the optical train directly (mounted ones work with most filter wheels, so I would say get mounted just in case). I have 12nm Ha and O3 and I'm super happy with them!

Backspacing information NEVER comes from the camera manufacturer. Camera manufacturers, like ZWO, provide an example of something like 55mm, which is a pretty common back focus distance, but that's only an example. You should always check with the telescope manufacturer, or reducer/flattener manufacture, to find the correct back focus. As an example, the correct back focus for your Raptor 61 is 55mm, but for the EdgeHD 11 it is 146.06mm...no matter which camera you use.

"You may have to change your MOUNT if it's too heavy". I feel attacked. I bought an LX200R 10" SCT and now I've got an EQ6-R Pro on the way. lol.

@@harekrishna242 planets are way easier than dsos for homemade telescopes, but we generally prefer to have mirrors because they are cheaper for the same diameter, and thus for the same price we can get much more details in our shots. Lenses aren't necessarily hard to install in a homemade telescope but you're probably going to get a lot of chromatic aberration, both from the not perfect distance between the elements, and from the simple fact that they are lenses in the first place. You're also not going to get great details, maybe you'll have the rings of Saturn but probably not Cassini's division, and you're probably going to see the equatorial belts on Jupiter but that'll be about it. With my 130mm newtonian that I got when I started, that was the best I could capture, and I don't think that a homemade achro will get close to an industrial newtonian. Bottom line is : if you want to build a telescope for fun, go for it! It's going to be amazing and you'll learn a lot. I recommend making a dobsonian though. If you want to take photos, a good homemade Dobson can go a long way but I would much rather go with a skywatcher/celestron telescope. This hobby is hard, and using homemade equipment will just make it harder.

It could happen accidentally, for instance small children hitting random buttons when playing with daddy’s Ipad. Ever noticed why most children channels on KZbin have like 50 million subs? That’s because the children watching those hit every button imaginable. Same goes with accidental dislikes. Ah well this is my own little theory 😉

Isnt astrophotography focus simply at infinity?

It is, but where is infinity? Somewhere in the middle of the focuser, and sometimes that's hard to find, especially since going from perfect focus from nothing at all only takes a turn of the knob!
