Re: Second attempt with the SeeStar

I've no idea how to answer your question about the SeeStar Rainer, these are the images which came straight from the iPhone. It is an alt az mount, will the rotation over half an hour cause the stars to be pancakes?

Tareq, you can use the Baader photographic wedge for visual, this is the whole point, it comes with a range of filters so that you can use any combination of ND you like for photographic use. If you want to do visual, just put the ND5 in :)
