Markus, You've brought forth a very interesting proposal. We would need to have two poll questions posted. 1. Geographically, where would be an ideal dark...
hi Bob, great result! tremendous amount of structure in both, M81 and M82! looking forward for the LRGB - H2 composit image! best regards, DIetmar ... 91 ... ...
Hi Folks, I thought I would share some test images from my newly redesigned TMB152 f8 APO. I built this OTA several years ago, and designed the internal...
Impressive work on that scope, Michael. Wanna do my 203? <g>. You added the rods, right? How did you link them to the lens cell and the back of the scope? ...
... (3 ... ************************ Yeah, Dietmar. For many years now I've just used a Telrad on my 10"f4 DAR (that's me!)EQ Newtonian Fork. I even took off...
Hi Folks, I have a 102 FL Vixen, SV80s , C14, and a few others. I am into CCD regards to possibly purchasing a TMB 130 does it make sense for CCD, visual...
I just saw on the APM web site a return of listings for 80mm f/6 and f/7.5 triplets in Willima Optics, APM/TMB, and carbon fiber tubes that will be available...
hi folks, this rarely imaged planetary nebula is located in taurus and it is not really bright... (-: I imaged it with 2 different CCDs: - luminance: SXVF H36;...
Hi Dietmar, A great picture of that planetary !!! The colours are just great and yes the seeing must have been excellent, even with the powermate in your ...
Mike, that depends on the focuser you have attached to the tube. usually these TMBs come along with a extnedable focuser - that is a tube in addition to the...
Dave right now I am at the winterstarty , I believe I have such adapter plates in my stock in germany, if not, I can get it made withhin 1 weeks after I come...
Hi Markus, Thanks for replying, and with good news. So far I had not found a source who could deliver an adapter in the near future. If you don't have one in...
My bring into such memorial telescope would be to build it at cost without adding any profit, how much that will be , we can calculate after we talk how to...
Charlie , LOMO informed me before they must raise the price very much due price increase of OK4 Super ED GLas and due big inflation between Rubel and US $. To...
...thanks Karel for your nice words! I wish you a pleasent and astronomical successful holiday! may seeing and transparency be cooperative! best regards, ...
Thanks Dietmar I just found one on Astormart thats less than a year old. I had ordered a 130ss in Oct.07 but canceled, know one know when they will be in. The...
Both the LW and CNC tubes are bino friendly Mike. Binoviewing w/o having to use a corrector lens requires a tube be able to go short enough, not longer. The LW...
Hello, I recently acquired a TMB 100 f/8 apo refractor, and it appears that it needs servicing. One of the lens elements seems to have rotated with respect to...
Hi Folks, I reprocessed my Luminance of M78. My goal was to bring out more of the dark structure in the nebula. This is such an interesting object -- next...
Markus, Why isn't it possible to make a few of the original TMB designed oil-spaced fluorite 80/480 and 80/600 optics again? I sure as heck know where you...
The lens must go back to APM Telescopes in Germany, no way out thanks markus ... From: frrodriguez78 To: tmboptical@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, February 05,...
Hi, I use the TMB130/1200 LW and it is a great apo! I am strictly a visual user, mostly lunar/planets/doubles/brighter DSOs. My eyepiece set was previously a...
hi Mike, congrats on a very nice image! perfect guiding, nice star edges, optimal framing and secure star shape all over the field! looking forward for the...
Hi Rob, I use mainly Brandons and Super Monos. Almost exclusively Super Monos (originals) for planetary observing. All are used in a bino-viewer. Some...
