12" reflector telescope and a digital camera. Need to do some tuning on the mirror though. I could not get any decent shots of Jupiter since its a little out of whack.

I have a Meade 10" Schmidt Cass and have done some film shots but no digitals. What camera? What adapter? Do you use an off axis guider?

Nice shot! Have you done any deep sky stuff?

I used the camera in this link. You just put it in instead of an eye piece and use the computer to view and snap pics. Since I have a dobsonian reflector I just have to do the guiding myself, it gets tricky with planets.

Here are the rest of the pics I took tonight that didn't turn out as well.




I couldn't get Jupiter to focus in. I'm going to work on the scope this week and hopefully get it optimized so I can get some good shots.
