My imaging rig

Here is my setup, minus the cameras. I had not aligned or drifted yet, so the cameras were not in place. But the top scope, Meade 80mm f/11.3 uses the DSI Pro I for the guide and the DSI II Color WO 80mm f/6 APO is the imaging camera. LXD650 mount, Toshiba laptop are the other parts to it. I have a new light box for the laptop though and hope to try it out tonight. On top of the old one you can see the 3 triangle Hartman Mask that I was trying for a focus aid. I have two others now that I will try tonight, a 3 round hole Hartman and a cross hair style. I will post what I find in trying them.

Floyd,just curious, are you using the same battery for the laptop or it’s own battery?
I have noticed mine runs out in 1 ½ hour or so from the beginning.

Floyd,
Nice rig, but what I really envy is that treeless horizon. Quite different than my backyard!

Nice setup Floyd! 8)
I'm sure you know this, but it is my understanding that unless you are doing "manual guiding", a long f/l scope like the one on top is no longer required...
