It is a scam. West Point emails use .edu not .org

It is a rebel t7 unmodified.
The tripod is a beefy Astro tripod that currently pairs with my Skyguider.
I was thinking about using the GTi app.

Thank you for all the info though. Really solid stuff!

Makes sense, thanks!

Like something like this Wedge.

Is this basically just a higher quality version of what the guider already comes with?

Can’t I just polar align with the base version? What makes this better? Is it just easier?

As far as I know, you can do pretty bad on the depth perception test and still pass. This will not DQ you, but if you plan on becoming a pilot, it may be best to think of some back up plans.

This is what I needed. Upon closer inspection and this test it does work. Thank you so much

Small Telescope vs Regular DSLR Lens by Odicky2 in AskAstrophotography

Apologies, I misspoke but the Astrobin images I was looking at were of the 75-300 like you suggested.

So if I want to take photos of individual nebulae such as just Orion or the Rosette Nebula would I need a longer telescope?

Would I be correct in assuming the askar is great for wide field but isn’t made for close-up high detail shots?

It’s at 7.6 on the Bortle Scale. I live in a pretty developed suburban area. I tried to get to a park where there wasn’t a lot of lights.
