QUOTE(March05 @ Oct 29 2005, 01:47 PM) the beautiful thing is that Mars will be up nearly all night tonite! It will clear the horizon in the East at around 7.40 pm, stroll through the night sky, passing overhead about 2.00 am, and then disappear in the West after sunrise! Plenty of time to take photos, provided the clouds don't get in the way as usual. rainy days..not expecting much in my place.. QUOTE(Mr.LKM @ Oct 29 2005, 03:31 PM) Whoa, that's plenty of time. Good luck to you all. I wish that no cloud block our sight. Sadly, I still don't have the telescope...I have to wait for 13years for the next event...  aiyoo..u olredi had enough money rite..go buy lar..dont wait2..  but next 13yrs u still young no worry..i would olredi retired all these things  |

QUOTE(Mr.LKM @ Oct 29 2005, 04:29 PM) I don't have enough money right now. By the way, I am told that the C6-NGT is a lot better than ETX-105AT with the same price but the C6-NGT weights 15KG while ETX105-AT only weights 6KG. I don't know which one I should choose. one more thing is the heavy weight equatorial mount of the C6-NGT.I think it works better than the one on the ETX series... But if u want to climb mountain definitley cant with the C6-NGT..  mm..i think u better buy either one first..and then buy the other later! how about that? nice idea huh??  |

QUOTE(Mr.LKM @ Oct 31 2005, 12:01 PM) I think I better go with the ETX-105AT but too bad Looi(Malaysia Meade Dealer) doesn't allow installments. This is terrible since I cannot afford to pay so much just in a time. I still need RM1300 arr  then go and collect your angpow lar..now raya+deepavali rite? u surely can earn some more $$$ |

QUOTE(Mr.LKM @ Oct 31 2005, 03:49 PM) You are as evil as your avatar  like my new avatar? QUOTE(March05 @ Nov 1 2005, 11:33 PM) The Newtonian is a Reflector i.e. it uses a concave mirror to bring light from far away to a focus.
Yes, it is suitable for planet viewing. But it would have to be very large and long (slow focal ratio) if you want to see big & bright images of the planets. Newtonian is the cheapest way to get longer focal length. QUOTE I have no idea what that shiny object is.  I think it is a UFO! The end of the world is coming! it can be anything..difficult to know what planet for theres no other clue. |

QUOTE(March05 @ Nov 10 2005, 09:11 AM) Mr.LKM very quiet nowadays? I can't ask you about the -you know what- since i'm forbidden to talk about it..... The other day I was using Google Earth, and looking at Kluang, wondering which building your house is.......your town looks like a good place for astronomy, quite flat terrain all round. Are there a lot of industrial factories in the town area? Yeap Kluang is not bad for astronomy.But I think Mr.LKM is at the towncenter area so can expect light pollution the dark side of kluang would have nice skyview. err..let me ask for u March..Mr.LKM how the photo? can upload or not? |

QUOTE(SowYau @ Nov 17 2005, 12:17 PM) hi, i need to ask something about Bulb feature in shutterspeed. Do i need to keep my finger press on the shutter until intended time exposure or is there any other way for me to press once and then let go and press again to stop? use the cable release lor.. u are not thinking to keep pressing it for few hours if u want to shoot star trails rite? QUOTE(Mr.LKM @ Nov 17 2005, 02:20 PM) The second alternative would do  Deepyu, I think you always do something wrong during full moon  no lar..i lock the door and stay inside. |

QUOTE(March05 @ Feb 2 2006, 03:44 PM) that's the best for my Casio (already hitting the limits of the low light sensitivity)...hehe. I wish I had the patience to do a sequence shot of the moons over 6 hours just to show how fast they move. Somehow it's not as exciting as seeing them with your own eyes, if you know what I mean.... yea..still can feel the excitement seeing them with my own eyes. definitely cant compare with looking at the pics lor but maybe with Mr.LKM's new gadgets we can see more of the moon |
