Astrophotography adventure in the Astrobus, DSLR astrophotography
In this video I meet up with a good friend and fellow astrophotographer and we venture out to do some astrophotography. There was quite a bit of cloud about so after having some fun with our drones awaiting darkness we kept things simple with some DSLT nightscape photography. A fun night as always....clear skies

ProLogik balance meter and tuning tool
https://www.prologik-astro.com/

The meter is of a high quality and works really well. Not only is it great for helping to find perfect balance in stiff mounts but it is a fantastic aid to fine tuning your mount for the best guiding. It will assist you in adjusting your worm drive/gear mesh to the optimum setting and giving you great smooth tracking and excellent guiding numbers.
