gfletcher Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Hi Guys Would anyone happen to know what a Skywatcher EQ5 Polar Scope FOV is? thanks Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) Scaling with a ruler from this image of the EQ5 polar scope engraving, if we take the Polaris circle as being 0.74 degrees radius from the NCP central cross, then the diameter of the outer circle (FOV) is about 8 degrees. Obviously the constellation markings are not to scale and only for orientation purposes. Edited October 20, 2018 by Tweedledee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
