I just got a Meade SWA 14mm eyepiece, and it seems to be much heavier than the Super Plossel eyepieces. Do I need a counter balance for using it on the LX90?...
Hi ?, The Lagoon there now is no different – still lots of vignetting. For teaching purposes, I've created a Photos folder entitled Analysis. In it you will...

Hi Dennis, Another terrific image from you. I would love to take images like that but with the learning curve so steep, I think I'll stick to planetary imaging...
Thanks for checking out the image, Ed. I spent many an hour imaging and observing the moon, Jupiter and Saturn with my LX-90. I even used to observe the moon...

Hi Michael, The PEC training on an LX90 runs for about 10 minutes...the period is about 8 minutes. If you are seeing these bumps in tracking speed every few...
Hi Haim, The best situation for the drive gears, of course, is to be balanced under any load. Do you mean the SWA 13.8 or the Ultra Wide 14? big difference in...
