It's a good scope

#

But it's huge

#

250mm diameter and 1.27meters long

#

It weighs a ton

#

If transportation isn't a problem for you it's a great scope

#

I know

#

Transportation is not a problem for me

Pot vedea mai multe galaxii

#

Dacă aș conecta o camera si as lasa-o acolo pt vreo 2-3 minute ar iesi o poza buna la galaxia andromeda

Can i see a lot o galaxies
If i would connect a camera and let it 2-3 minutes will it make a good photo of andromeda galaxy

#

Can i take long exposure photos with the telescope or do i need some special equipment

#

Depends on ur bortle level. And no you can't take long exposure ad a matter of fact you can take milli second exposures, you need an equatorial platform or an eq mount for long exposure

#

So what is the longest exposure i can take

#

And if i take like 3 second long exposure and stack like 100 do i get color

#

And quality s little more that a normal photo

#

Do i get more quality if i stack them

#

Or 1 second

#

Another question what is bortle level

La tine cred ca ar trebui sa se vadă calea lactee pe un cer senin
