Post some pictures when you get everything setup!
Will do, and, thanks Gordon for the interest.
Last night turned out to be cloudy again. No break from the clouds tonight either.
However, forecast is for clear skies tomorrow night, so, maybe I'll capture first light tomorrow.
I've already taken many pictures of the setup, and, have tested all the connections (power, GPS,
DSLR and Guide Camera usb connections, iPolar connection and software), so, Polar Alignment and
AP image taking are all that are left. The anxiety over learning all the new features has reduced significantly, and I'm starting to get excited about the first imaging session.
I'll post a review once I have a successful imaging session (at least successful from the point of view of the mount).
More to come.
