Greetings - I have just purchased a StellarVue 115 Apochromatic refractor & have had the chance to use it one night. Great images, so far, and I'm looking...
Hi Ronald. I also have the SV115 scope and I love it. It is my workhorse scope and gets used all spring, summer and fall on a semi-permanent mount. Sometimes I...
Hi Ronald, and welcome! If you live in an area populated enough to have well stocked hardware stores, that's the place to start looking. If you don't have...
Hi Ronald, Congrats on the excellent scope! What did you mount it on? Are you visual, imaging, or both? George is right about finding most everything you...
Hey Mike, Nice, very sharp images! Is this the camera adapter you used, Baader Microstage II, or something else?? http://tinyurl.com/yeqvn32 Thanks, Perry...
... Bill, I have 2 adapters, one which is T-threaded which I use with a T-ring and no camera lens, and another which is 52mm diameter adapter which fits my...
Oops, Didn't see George's reply until after I posted mine. Please pardon the duplication, all. Don't mean to insult anyone's intelligence with redundant info. ...
I got a DM4 mount for the SV115T. I decided to get an adjustable handle for the mount. I bought a Manfrotto telescopic pan handle which attached directly to...
Handle looks great. So does it just attach to the ring with a 6mm screw (or is it a 1/4-20?)? Haven't tried the SV handle on my MG yet but this looks to be a...
Wow, thanks for all of the replies. I've been using a 3.5" reflector to date, and this is my first refractor, so far... really looking forward to seeing the ...
Jim: No, it's not, although the Marshall 18' Sanderling is a beautiful little boat. Sanderling is the original name of my forty-two year-old Charlie...
... I haven't sized the screw. It is part of a thumbscrew that came with the pan handle. It fits any of the 5 holes along the top of the hinged ring. I put a...
Hey Mike, You learn something every day on this great group! Thanks for the info. I didn't know the Hyperions had such an adapter to t-thread to the cam. ...
Great Shots Mike! Afocal photography is great. Low cost too! ;-} I haven't done any afocal with my SV115T yet but maybe it's time to start. I've probably...
Mike, That's one of the things I like about shooting with a webcam. With free software such as RegiStax, hundreds of seemingly marginal image frames can be had...
Remember, Daylight Savings Time finishes early this morning, and with that comes Starlight Savings Time. Of course, if you want must, you can still call the...
Great work, Jim, and thanks for sharing it with us! I did the same thing with my SV80ED (scope + candy), but only a few goblins came by. It would have been...
This region is always fascinating to expolore a few days before full moon. The plateau looks like a square block floating on Oceanus Procellarum. Resolution...
