Hello everyone.
First, I'm sorry for my English. I know it's very bad.
And now about me. I'm retired from work from april 2021.
When I retired I wanted rediscover some of my old passion, as Photography and Astronomy.
In Astrophotography I found a fantastic way to join them.
I'm new in this amazing hobby and I ask you criticisms and suggestion; and a lot of comprehension if my works are bad.
Actually I use:
- as Mount SW EQ6 R Pro;
- for mid-wide fields Tecnosky AG 70mm f/5;
- for narrow field, planetary and visual Celestron C8 (in photography with corrector/reducer 0.63X);
- ASI ZWO294MM PRO as main camera for Deep Sky;
- ASI ZWO385 MC as guide camera using ZWO OAG, or Planetary camera;
- ASIAIR PLUS, ZWO ASI EAF and ZWO ASI EFW 7x2".
I arrived at this set last January, after changing a lot of instruments.
I think next step is a travel set and a mid-field OTA.
Usually I take my pictures from home, under a sky Bortle 6-7 near 2 sodium lights.
Thanks to @Luca Fornaciari ​​​​@Marco Rapino for their complete and useful tutorial.
Bye all.

Welcome Massimo, and please dont apologise for your English. As an Australian I am in awe of anyone who can master even the basics of another language. I've tried and failed on a number of languages, maybe Italian next 🙃

And you look to have assembled a great set of equipment early on. The asi294mm is very capable and flexible. 

My skies here are likewise bortle 6-7 and nearby sodium lights. Narrowband is what I normally do. I use the antlia pro 3nm ones which work well here... would love chroma or astrodon, but can't justify the 3x expense at my current stage of the hobby... retirement maybe 2-3 years away from me and maybe then.

anyway welcome again and if you have any questions just ask.

Cheers

Rob

Thanks Rob, expecially for my English.
I use narrowband filters too. Actually A Svbony HOS set 7 nm. They’re very cheap, but not so bad. But now i’m practising. 
I have a lot to learn. 
Thanks again and have a nice day (for me is midnight, and the weather is cloudy).
