Newly acquired Meade 127 ED F9 Doublet

Post by johnyjf »


I have just acquired one of these which looks to be in excellent order. Judging by photos taken with same collimation is pretty good. Does anyone have any particular advice or tips they can. Supply? At F9 deep sky astrophotography might be a challenge, suitable focal reducer? Thanks in anticipation.

I'll mount it on my EQ6 Tuesday. There's a hint of a clear sky that evening.
