Hi, a couple of things: 1. Please sign your postings. Perhaps it is under the image? Anyway, it is a good idea to do sign all postings. 2. What units are you expressing you guiding error in? Pixels or

Good morning Sirs my name is Ettore Ribaudo and I receveid yesterday my mount but I have big problem: 1) USB have a random problem with connect. 2) wifi functions good. 3) mount not move in nothing

So a couple weeks ago I finally completed my rig. Been out with it twice so far and I'm trying to find some insight as to why my guiding is so bad. Exos2GT PMC8 mount, ASI120mm mini and using a 60mm

Many thanks again Julien. I'm waiting for clear skies now but will see how I go with just my DSLR and Sequator (which appears to be loaded successfully), Kind regards, Brian

Hey Brian, I use Lightroom to pre-process my lights, I use the lens profile of my lens to remove the vignetting and apply some small steps like reducing the highlights and the blacks to get rid of

Hi Julian many thanks for this, much appreciated. I had problems loading DSS unfortunately I think because I have an older 32 bit PC. I presume DSS requires a 32 bit platform. I have now successfully

Outstanding. I've recently gotten five minutes subs and I too am very impressed and satisfied with my mount performance. I'm sure it could do twice that amount or more time permitting. Darryl --

Beautiful shot Bob. 10 minutes is terrific! -- Scope: Orion EON 115mm APO Mounts: ES EXOS2-GT w/ PMC-8 Cameras: Canon 6D Astro Mod, Canon 7D2, 1D Mk 2, EOS 60D Asto Modified Lens:

Wes Amazing! Just tried to connect and test the mount from APT. Exactly what I needed for slow motions and framing. Problem solved! Hope it's going to be a clear night for further testing.

Asanmax I have APT up and running great. It does a wonderful job with the plugins of plate solving. It also integrates well with Stellarium via stellariumscope too. So you should have no

Thanks for the information Bob. Unfortunately I am not planning to use Astrotortilla. I see there is an option to connect to the mount in Astrophotography Tool. I'll give it a try and see if I can

Good! Just wondered - there was more than one thing going on in the post :-) -- Mounts: ES PMC-8 EXOS2 Scopes: SV 102EDT, ZWO 60/280 Guide Cameras: Nikon D5300, Altair GPCAM2-IMX224C Software:

I have the EXOS2 PMC8 mount but have not stepped up to guiding yet. I’m impressed with your results. Being a relative beginner, I’ve been happy with what I’ve been able to do unguided after a

On which part? :-) -- Mounts: ES PMC-8 EXOS2 Scopes: SV 102EDT, ZWO 60/280 Guide Cameras: Nikon D5300, Altair GPCAM2-IMX224C Software: ASCOM, CdC, AstroTortilla, BYN Pro, Sharpcap, PHD2 Computer:

That is great! I’m sold!

And... Here's a first-cut try at processing the stack from that session. 12 X 600s used, plus flats and dark flats, stacked in DSS and processed in StarTools. Lots of room to do better (both

Eric, You can do a lot with 5 minutes at 300mm - that's great! Thanks! No, it's faster than that. Mine's a 102/621mm. I started out with a 50/200mm guide scope, and on Jerry's advice went to

Cybermonk, Absolutely - but as to discouraging posts, it's all about expectations. :-) The mount, with out-of-the-box adjustments, will likely track fine for visual users. Putting a camera on one

Congratulation Bob, Your focal length is 714mm, is't it ? With camera do you use for guiding ? I begin to get descent shot at 5minutes with a 300mm F/5.6 canon lens. Guiding with a 60/240 scope and a

I'm finally getting time to learn and play with my new-ish mount. I have been reading some discouraging posts about length of exposures, Its good to know that once I get it right, there is something
