I've recently bought a 183mc Pro [cooled], I have a couple of questions about using it as a standalone - ie not on scope: I was hoping to be able to use it with my Canon EOs lenses, can this be done using this:https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Adapter-for-Canon-EOS-objectice-lenses-to-ZWO-ASi-cameras-TSEOS...

hi Robin is there a quick and easy setup for planetary imaging with sharpcap? this will be my first attempt this evening, if i can get setup in time...as I'd like to get some images of Mars - while it's still nice and bright. my equipment: Skywatcher 130p Alt-AZ, Zwo ASI 183MC pro (cooled) - or i ca...

thanks Robin

being new to this forum, i'm still finding my way around. just discovered this thread - there are some really nice Neowise images! thought i'd add a couple of my own. the second (i think) i've over-processed, but as a beginner, i'll learn from this. ♦ Canon 200d, Samyang 14mm: ♦ exp= 20sec ♦ ISO = 4...

Hi Dave thanks for the link - it pretty much confirms ms suspicions: > my all-sky enclosure just doesn't have the room for the extra gear. peltier, maybe, but definitely not the heatsink and fan > even if there were room, the current 12v line supports the dew heater and maybe could be shared with a ...
