I'm glad that you have such opportunities to "look up" while over there. I'm sure the others that you've shared those wonderfuls views with appreciate it too....
Hi ALL I've seen many star test (include mine) of many 110mm ZS110mm / FLT110mm. I think the optics are under correct the spherical aberration because the...
Hello all, Was just wondering about a quick answer to a "getting started" question: I have a WO ZenithStar 66SD with a quick-release wedge on the bottom; a...
Hi John, I too live in MI, and have a ZS 66, but mostly for DSO; not moon. You might need a 2-3 inch extension tube to reach focus. If you want to vary mag,...
Hi all! I´m new in this group, I received my William Optics ZS66 SD APO the other day and I´m looking forward to use it to my modded Canon Digital Rebel XT...
Yes, the only way is the .8 FR/FF. This item is a must if you use the zs66 for photography. I have the 66 and the focal reducer and it does an excellent job...
I like the idea of buying and using the above but I`m unsure whether or not it will work on my telescopes. I already have a Skywatcher Evostar 120 and I`ve got...
I would like to delete the above message from the forum so I can rephrase it. I don`t know how to edit the first message sent as I`m new to this sort of thing....

Hi All, Took a test shot with the new scope last night. Was wondering if this is the typical amount of field curvature other users of this scope have in their...
The look strange in both center and corner, they don't suffer of field curvature or coma, they look like a part of them is missing. Silly question : did you...
I don't see it. The problem with this image seems to be focusing and tracking IMO. I would take some more test shots; another object prehaps and longer...
Hi I've a problem with my Zenithstar, I can't reach the focus with 2" dielectric diagonal e all the eyepiece, but if I add the 2" extension before the diagonal...
Graziano, it is NOT a problem, it is the way the scope is built ON PURPOSE. I guess the place you bought this from didn't explain it to you. The scope is...
Thanks for the reply Yesterday I' ve observed the moon and I confirm the great quality of the optics of my zenith star, in bad seeng condition I'have reached ...
Perhaps it was just a little out of focus. I have an image I took last night with very carefully focused stars. When I finish processing it I'll post it and...
I'll agree that focus looks just slightly off, or the conditions weren't great, but tracking? I think that maybe the camera was tilted a bit. Chris ... ...
Hi all, Here is a shot of the Moon on July 27th, 2007. I'm not sure I had perfect focus. Also, the Moon was low in the sky and orange in color, so "seeing"...
Hello all, I worked on the eastern segment of the Veil Nebula last night. I like it! Though, it is over-all too red for me. My subs were pretty red in...
Hi All, I'm still working out a few issues with my camera, mount, & FLT 132mm APO while waiting for the sky to clear up. One issue I've run into is that I...
Mario, How does this 4in1 adapter connect to the telescope? You say you replaced the end of the focuser, does the FLT110 have a threaded adapter on the end of...
Hi All, Not sure about this but I have just been imaging M31 and seen a bright 'blob' in M31 like a very large nova can some one check in case its my poor ...
