Description

Still testing my new rig. The combination of the Lacerta Fotonewton 10" f/4 with the 10 Micron is a great one. Almost no focus drift during the night and pretty sharp stars (when collimated properly). However, there are a lot of traps to fall in. If you ever use an electrical rotator, make sure that the cables at the end of the camera are not to tight. In one night, my camera came loose while N.I.N.A. tried to correct the field of view. Lucky me, N.I.N.A. reached the correct angle before the camera droped of the telescope.
