M51-1st-try.jpg


First light with the Takahashi EM11

Mounted on the tripod with legs extended to get over the pier. Photo's
taken with the ED80 beside the WO ZS66 Petzval and the SXV Guider. About 20lbs total load.
Seeing was poor (1-2/5) with whispy clouds all night. Guider calibrated very easy and with very little adjustment seems to be tracking and guiding
better than the LXD650 ever did


other sizes: small medium large original auto
