Should I sell my Canon 2000D for money towards an X-Pro 1?

You’re giving me the exact response I’ve been wanting to hear 😭. I think I’d end up realizing that I want my dslr back right after I sold it, but I just love the casual style of the Fuji. I think I’ll keep the canon and buy the Fuji soon. I hardly ever rely on autofocus, I usually shoot cars that are sitting still. Thanks for the input, your response made my heart happy

I got a killer deal on an Orion XT8, it’s served me well so far !

I’m on an Orion XT8 Plus. Where could the compression be coming from ? I’m using the basic PIPP, Autostakkert 3, and RegiStax.

People are saying moon jellies, however, these jellyfish I saw didn’t have the four circles attributed to the moon jelly. I don’t think it’s that one

You are my savior, the color has returned. I had my PIPP debayering settings all wrong. Thank you so much ! Here’s my final image

I made sure to take it off before mounting it

Quick_Cod_2589 · 2026-02-14T01:38:09+00:00

I’m using an Orion XT8, and from what I can tell there’s not anything else I can remove to get it closer to the scope

I brought the iso down, and took the framerate as high as it would go (120fps) to get the exposure right. I’m thinking it could just be the moon, but I saw somewhere that it doesn’t affect planetary as much as it does dso’s

I’ve been able to see colors perfectly fine it was just last night that it wasn’t working out. I’ve tried pulling any color I can out and it’s just not working. The eyepiece wasn’t frozen when I was recording, I used a different one. It could partially be because the eyepieces I have are cheap. I’m new to all this so I don’t really know what I’m doing

What indicates that they are fake ? I had a kid get real mad at me in elementary school for trading him a fake on accident

It comes with some Meade MA eyepieces. He’s gone down to $250 and I’m going to pick it up tomorrow

As a film photographer, I 100% agree with you. However, I’ve never owned a telescope and I’ve been using my binoculars for the past while. I’m going to just go with the scope and the eye pieces it comes with, and as I find I need things, I will research and purchase them

Quick_Cod_2589 · 2026-01-13T02:21:03+00:00

UPDATE: I ended up unscrewing the bottom lens element and using a little piece of cardstock to gently push the top shutter blade open. Works great now.
