Hope I can ask this here...

Hi Paul,

all I can tell you is that I have a 2000 XCM and I'm very happy with it. I'm not very good at using it yet, but I'm getting there wink

It is very easy to use and the double chip and self guiding is a blessing, trust me. I could not think of setting up another camera to do the guiding too and, believe, one day you'll want to guide your esposures.

That's all I can contribute Paul: I hope it'll be useful.

Ciao

You should add a touch of color as soon as you get the chance.

Very nice Tyler! It seems that you and that Tak astrograph are a very well assorted couple! Or better a hot "menage a trois" with the mighty ST2000 grin
I hope you took more that night!

Ciao Tyler

First Try - M33

Posted By Gianluca Valentini

Alright Louis! That is a great looking 1st start: I know mine wasn't that good and I used the same scope and camera!

Now get some color data and complete the good job you started.
