I don't see a point in getting a mono cam for a nexstar mount, you would need a beefy mount, ideally off axis guiding and a manual filter wheel doesn't make much sense

Ohhhh

#

Oh ok

#

Yes i would shoot Nebulas and galaxy for sure

#

Do you think the wedge is good?

#

it helps a little but to track accurately at the focal length of the c9.25 you need a beefy mount and guiding, most people also use the .63x reducer since the native fl is just way too much

Oh ok thank you

#

depending on your budget it's easier to start from 0 by getting a new mount than trying to improve the nexstar

Oh alright thanks
