newt with paracorr vs mak newt

Posted By Greg Bradley

Can only commment on a Vixen R200SS I had with coma corrector. Tendency to coma despite the corrector. Collimation critical but not too hard with a laser (forget it without one).
Not super sharp not even as sharp as an SCT. On the other hand photos seen from Mak Newts seem to be very good, up there with refractors.

Never looked through one though but would seem Mak Newt for sure is the answer.

Great shot Jim,

Looks like you've got it down how to use your ToUcam. Amazing what can be extracted from it. I wouldn't change anything if I were you. It takes a long time to get a setup working.

Omega Centauri Yet again

Lovely. It is very sharp, well done!

Your tracking must be good as I have found 30 seconds adventurous on Globs with an SCT in Alt Az. Were you using a wedge?
