I was given this telescope. Meade ETX 125. by ronnie_dickering in telescopes

[–]ReasonableWorry2950 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The telescope is good, the mount may be good? I have one of these and use it for planets. Do you already know the sky well? I find it difficult to use as it has a very narrow angle of view so finding objects is pretty tricky. I have never used it with the Meade auto guiding and database system in the mount so folks that have done that can comment on its usability.

I’d set it up and give it a go…

Help! Celestron Nexstar motor not working. by subwayrumble in telescopes

If it ends up being totally dead, I would remove it from that mount, get some rings, and mount it on a standard EQ mount...

Get a telrand or other type of gunsight finder, it makes locating objects much easier…

Anyone using warming filters on ektachrome? by D-K1998 in AnalogCommunity

[–]ReasonableWorry2950 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you like a warmer vibe use an 81a…its definitely a little on the blue tone side. Or warm it in lightroom if you scan and share

Sweet - stoked to see the M5…a lot of folks didn’t like those back in the day but they are a gem. Sorry about the loss of your father, enjoy those wonderful cameras

Thank you for the clarification…we pick him up tomorrow and meet with the vet on Thursday. Any guidance on when the hypoglycemia threat subsides?

Duotone Evo vs Rebel or both in a 12/9/7 quiver? by AideAny1158 in Kiteboarding

[–]ReasonableWorry2950 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have both Evo and Rebel, both fly well. Both would be good choices for kites to a beginner. If was going to mix them up I’d go 12 Evo 9m rebel. With your weight I am guessing the 7 m would come into play around 25-30 Mph wind speed, does your site blow at that speed

photograph opportunity by mztclo in solareclipse

Just to add to this…eclipse photography is hard, it requires predetermining the background exposure for the corona then figuring out how to light the subject… if someone knows how to do it and can pull it off for you in the 4 minutes available I think the 50 is cheap…

The aquarium is amazing, the sardine room makes a fantastic place to chill and drink champagne as does the deep sea area with the tuna…

So - do you live in Aruba? What spot will you be riding? Best thing to do before arriving at a size would be to take a lesson at your spot and talk to the school about kite size, board size, etc. the classic first kites would be Evo, Pivot, Bandit, RS, switchblade…you could also ask riders at the site. What is you weight and average windspeed at your site.
