Equipment

The observing and astrophotography setup I currently use, from the modified Dobsonian to the cameras and processing tools behind the images.

Current astrophotography setup

Current Setup

My primary setup is built around a modified Sky-Watcher Classic 150P Dobsonian telescope equipped with an OnStep motorized tracking system. Combined with dedicated astronomy cameras and modern processing software, it allows me to explore everything from bright star clusters to distant galaxies and nebulae.
