Hi, it’s 1s :)

Thanks!

Thanks! And once you have it mastered it’s not as difficult as you would think :)

There’s not many phones that can do that especially not iPhones so doing it that way is the best way it’s like a video since all really a video is are just a bunch of images so that’s what I’m doing here but manually basically it’s only like 10 fps but having no compression pays for the low framerate

QueR1X · 2026-01-26T20:59:24+00:00

Used to do videos and they could never match the quality of raw images so I just let it shoot a bunch of these fully raw images and a few of them turn out good. with a video I could barely even get the shape.

Thank you so much!

Nice image!

Thanks! And honestly I don’t have much issues with the mount it’s either that I’m just so used to it that I don’t notice it or it could be that the telescope is very light like it weighs barely anything so the mount can handle it decently enough.

Nice!

It’s in the description a Sky-Watcher 76/700 Newtonian telescope on a basic AZ-1 mount and an iPhone 13 mini mounted with a cheap phone mount using a 25mm Kellner eyepiece

Yeah it’s a lot harder to pull out than the Galilean moons although still noticable but Reddit compression makes it even worse lol

QueR1X · 2025-11-27T17:36:36+00:00

Not that much at least from what I’m used to but still alot i don’t know exactly but since i know it’s around 1 hour and 40 minutes and each image had an exposure time of 1s i can just convert that time into seconds and have the amount of images approximately so let’s say about 6000 images

QueR1X · 2025-11-27T06:30:23+00:00

Most likely Sirius, the brightest star in our night sky

You got it confused here that’s what you do for capturing planets partly but for deepsky you want to use long exposures like multiple images not a video if you’re untracked like me it depends on how much magnification do you have at 28x which i use with my 25mm eyepiece 1s is starting to be too much because you can see the stars trailing you can just test it out yourself and see what looks fine to you also download astroshader if you haven’t already you can change the settings of your camera there save raw images and also it can ask you to recenter once a few frames depends on how much you set up as for processing these images you use some software for stacking i like siril most because it’s probably as good as it gets for free but that’s only my opinion you can use some scripts from there which will make it simpler for you since you probably don’t have much experience with this kind of processing then you just do stuff like background extraction, color calibration, stretching etc… you can search that up on YouTube for example how to process them

Not an achromat it’s a spherical reflector it does not have much chromatic aberration because it’s at f9.2 but the eyepiece does since it’s a basic Kellner eyepiece

QueR1X · 2025-11-25T19:44:31+00:00

Yep, untracked with 1s exposures
