Re: How much does wind impact imaging

MA to CGEM tripod
Does anyone know if I can mount a MA to CGEM tripod.? It looks like the MA just needs a 1/2" bolt and a flat surface or am I missing something.

Polemaster or Sharpcap? how about both
I have been a longtime polemaster fan - great for fast polar alignment Lately i've moved to sharpcap because i wanted more accurate polar alignment. however, i found sharpcap is a lot less sensitive

Re: How much does wind impact imaging
Wind, for me, does not often have a direct impact. I and my equipment are well shielded by the back block wall, and tall foliage growing on the wall. I have a condo complex across a wash (ditch)

Re: How much does wind impact imaging
Brian, What is your image scale (arcsec/px)? With the wind, apart from the bloated stars, the bigger issue for me at my image scale (1.6 arcsec/px)? is the occasional gusts that will cause a big jump
