Popular Post Brady Posted April 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2022 (edited) I only had 2 hours spare inbetween sky/jobs last night but managed a couple with the CC, i wanted to experiment with it to see if its worth getting a reducer for it or just call it quits and keep it for lunar/planets only, 30 minutes on each RGB and processed to hell but not as bad as i expected, the reducer is the CCDT67 by AstroPhysics that i have my eye on but £200+ delivery i need to be sure if its going to get its use.....well anyway i still havnt made my mind up yet 😁 Edited April 22, 2022 by Brady +Glafnazur, BAZ, Clive and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 CC = Classical Cassegrain? Is that an uncropped image? M51 is nicely framed and the stars look OK so do you really need a reducer? Brady 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bino-viewer Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 £200 for an Astro Physics seems pretty reasonable. They do one for my scope for £1500 !!! 😮 I won't be buying it !! Brady 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's the Cassegrain, the 8" stellalyra F12, It's not far off Clive, cropped some off from stacking...I don't think it needs one but read somewhere about using the scope with my camera may blow out the image...it's something that just stuck in my head but i never did the homework.
