Hi Gordon Actually in case of Taks, even the fluorite series had a good R/IR correction (worsening toward blue, hence the halos around bright stars). TOAs are...
Good information Pawel. Thank you. I have up to this point used a Hutech LPS filter with my M25C but unfortunately they do not list a 50mm, unmounted version...

NJPs I can tear down and reassemble in my sleep. EM-series I've only adjusted the motors. If anyone in South or East Texas has this experience I'd be more...

Hi Gordon This was exactly my experience - images with Hutech IDAS/LPS were quite easy to balance and showed decent color under my suburban skies - well ...
I created this Video for fun to illustrate to local kids what I could see through the Tak TOA130. In addition I am often asked what it would be like to go to...
Hi Pawel. I emailed Ted at Hutech. He could sell me an unmounted IDAS LPS filter. According to Ted, the 52mm mounted filter is 49mm, unmounted. I don't know...
Needing a spare portable tripod for my EM200 and given the fairly high cost of purchasing a new one I attempted to make a copy of the Tak. The result can be...
Hi Groups, Its been a while since I posted anything. This is approx 10 hours of LRGB on M31 with an FSQ and ATK4000 ccd. This was taken from Les Granges in...

hi Keith o.k I will pay more attention to this problem because high temps will damage the precious optics over time ( I believe now). thanks a lot All the best...
Hi Frank, You can use the reducer that is designed for the Sky 90. I use this with my FS-60C and purchased it from Anacortes. Clear skies, Kevin Dixon ...
Hi Kevin, I knew that could be used with the FS-60C, but I am looking for the dedicated reducer for this scope. I've read that the Sky 90 reducer doesn't do...
Hi Frank, Doesn't do all that well in what respect? I use it all the time for imaging with excellent results. I have rarely used the scope visually but when...
