Gary: Sounds like fun. Sorry I cannot make it as I always enjoy attending these. It actually hurt to miss Steve's annual Joshua Tree star party and feast. Let...
Jim is correct. If you buy new (as I did a couple of months ago) the dew shield does not slide down when viewing at the zenith. How's that for fast response!! ...
We could work 24 hours a day and still not get it all done this time of year. But we are - as a staff - having a great time this year. Lisa has done an amazing...
Thanks Kevin: The Dyer review pointed this out and we remedied it. We do alot to get the movement of the dewshield just right. If the climate is such that the...
Dear Anders: So, you screw on your T ring, screw it on the telescope, look thru the view finder, and pull the trigger? Spray and pray? I have tried with a...
I have seen books on CCD imaging but have not seen anything on using a digital camera for astrophotograpy. I would be happy if you could reccomend one. Most...
Nothing! ;-) The larger ring on the At1010 has holes to fit perfectly with the Telepod heads, and the mounting screws coming with the Pod fit into these holes!...
Gary, Hank: This is the way it works with the D60/10D. I surely wouldn't say no to live video output, but I can live without it. Most of the things that are...
Stellarvue appears to have addressed this. After reading the S&T review I ordered a Nighthawk. The dew shield works perfectly. It is tight enough that it...
Hi Matt, Trying to catch up on some posts from the last few weeks. Nice image of M31! Nice job on the mosaic. Cant wait to see the color version. Jon Talbot...

In a message dated 11/1/2003 10:41:38 AM Pacific Standard Time, ... It's really no "biggie." It think Vic has already added some felt pads to remedy the...
Bill, That's great! I'm looking forward to getting a look through a 1010, and also Smilen's 102. I'll post directions (possibly with photos of the last few...
I received an off list inquiry and my reply was unable to go through so I'm posting it here. This is neither an NJAA event, nor an official Stellarvue event. I...
I am now in the wing walker mode. Crazy, but not crazy enough to let go what I got till I get something else to hold on to! I really wish there was a good...
Gary, I'm planning on driving in from CT, and I might bring a friend if he can make it. I'll also bring my Blackhawk, (a 1010+ if you will). -Bill Chellis ... ...
... telepod? None. All you need are the two wing nuts/threaded posts that come with the Telepod. They line up perfectly with the two holes on the Nighthawk...
Jim, Thanks again for the encouragement! You know they have some really good fares...and Newark or Philly airports aren't too far away... Gary Fuchs ... three ...
Hank, An SLR has a mirror, then a shutter, then the film or sensor. That's why you have to compose through the lens - not on a screen in back. Also why there's...
I note that the ONLY "ding" in the S&T review of the Nighthawk is that the dew shield slides back when the scope is pointed upward. Is this a problem for...
--Dear Anders: The answer I think is that with a SLR the mirror is down? Ergo, no light. The Coolpix and Canon C 5050 apparently are different mechanically....
In a message dated 11/1/2003 7:39:56 AM Pacific Standard Time, ... Gary, Way to go! Keep plugging the event -- you may get 6 or 8. Come on all you hearty...
In a message dated 10/31/2003 5:00:10 PM Pacific Standard Time, ... Renato, As you know from my many posts on the subject, I am one of the biggest fans of the...
I'm reposting this for any SVers or potential owners in the NY, NJ, CT, or PA areas - or other areas... So far it looks there will be four of us, with I think...
Hi Smilen ! This may not be relevant for you, but I really like to give the reasons why the D60 and/or 10D does not offer a continuous stream of video to a ...
