You almost landing , I think there is some mismach between camera and teloscope , I base my opinion analising the first pic and the others, beside you may need to work with the WB in my practice of course without telescope I notice the using sunnying as WB and spot or ponderate w there are a lot of diference am still studing how improbe deep of field but not yet obtaing good, you know that telefotos flatter imagen.
Good luck and let me know about your learning about, I am also a fan to celestial picture, now you can take Saturn I belive your telescope is enought power to take it.

Great photos Wizpc1!!

would you be kind enough to upload photos of your camera setup? I would like to see how the telephoto adapter looks on the camera and how it connects to the lens. Thank you

Love, Monkey

Nice. Good luck with your new setup. I'm thinking the bottom two photos are upside down. No?

Got my Telescope adapter today, and did some playing around with it.
The photos aren't the greatest, but I'm still playing with setup.
Telescope is 150mm diameter, and 1400mm focal length.
1st shot: is with Prime Focus Setup, basically a T-Ring with a T-1.25" adapter fitted straight to telescope.
The following 2 shots are taken with the Eyepiece Projection setup. This setup uses the actual eyepiece for the telescope. The eyepiece I used Plössl 25mm AF40º.
I got my setup from here

Telescope/fl 1/100 f/00 ISO 200

Telescope/fl 1/25 f/00 ISO 200

Telescope/fl 1/50 f/00 ISO 200
