Thanks, Paul. I had a tooth pulled. I struggle to believe all the possibilities attributed to it, but if you confirm it, I’ll begin to dispel my doubts.
I’m referring here to the cheapest telescope AP 50/250 Seestar S50.
I’ll tell you, it’s a little hard to imagine having Pluto within reach. It seems that on M13, M31, M42, the Pleiades, etc., it’s truly miraculous. For “beautiful” photography, I think it’s a good instrument, even if the resolution leaves something to be desired. I wonder: what does it provide on Epsilon Lyrae?
Given its light weight, I’d take it to high mountains, to the Gran Sasso, even at altitudes above 2,800 meters, to photograph lunar eclipses, which I study seriously. At F=250mm, the lunar and solar disks have a diameter of about 2.5 mm. So I wonder what the quality of lunar photography is, taken for photometric purposes? No description provides information about the actual resolution on the Moon and Sun.
I would like to see some photographs of the Moon and the photosphere, taken without any post-production or retouching with various soft-focus techniques.
Thank
P.S. Sorry for my poor English, I don’t know much and I have to use a translator.
