Imaging Rig #1: Planet and Galaxy Killer - 9.25" Edge HD, 2350mm FL, f/10

Description

Several folks have asked to see the equipment that I use to image.

This is the Celestron 9.25 Edge HD mounted on an iOptron CEM70 mount with an iOptron Tri-Pier. The primary imaging camera is a ZWO ASI071MC Pro One Shot Color (OSC) mounted on a Celestron Off Axis Guider (OAG). The smaller perpendicular guide scope camera is a ZWO ASI290MM. A Celestron Focus Motor is used to provide extremely precise movements of the focuser to achieve precise focus.

All is controlled through a Surface Pro laptop via (2) USB cables. Acquisition software includes NINA, ASCOM, ASTAP, iOptron Commander / iPolar, PHD2, FireCapture, and SharpCap Pro. Image processing software is done through PixInsight.
