Hi Pedro, I'm a tad jealous of your newbie acquisition, which certainly seems to be performing very well.
I imagine we will see more excellent images in the future via the Helios.
Watched the video and excellent there too.
Thanks vm

Pedro,
Very nice video and I liked the background info within. And a nice choice of music too!
Keep imaging with the Helios 1. It does well.

That works really well Pedro considering it is a juvenile solar scope design. Can you try it with a modern blocking filter in?

Great images and video of the session Pedro
It shows the quality of the scope when it is 20 years old and still performs so well.
