11 Objects Imaged in one night using ZWO Seestar S50 

Wonderful!!! During this past long weekend. We had clear skies, but spent my time with a new pc build. I love this Seestar. I'm amazed at what can be accomplished.

Hey there Don!!! Yes, I need to get on NSN!!!

Yeah hopefully you can get some time in. Have you experienced issues with this week's Seestar updates?

@@gwzapo No, I haven't. Have you?

@@gwzapo And for what it's worth, I'm running iOS.

@erewhon42 I tried yesterday (android) and got repeated issues to install firmware update even though I had done so...or so I thought. I finally uninstalled the updated app and reverted back to prev. Version on Google Play. I installed the updated app from ZWO. I'll wait before I mess with it again. I'm confident ZWzo will sort this out.

@@gwzapoOh wow that's interesting. Yeah I'm sure they'll sort it out quickly.

Thank you very much! If you locate my face book page (use the same name) and via messenger, message me, I'll send you Betelguese and Sirius. ,,,, I did a single exposure on each of these, so they are not great. I had considerable flaring. I don't know when I'll be able to capture these stars again as currently when it is dark, M42 is behich a huge tree in a neighbors yard.

@@gwzapo For sure man! subbed on here love the content too I had no idea the seestar existed until yesterday! I've really wanted to delve into astronomy for years and the seestar looks phenomenal for the price. Definitely a future purchase

@@loowisk1113 , for the price point, it is a phenominal instrument.

I've had it this Seestar since mid Nov. I'd say it's been a great instrument for the money. The biggest issue I've ran into is the updates to it changing some features that were great the way they were. I've imaged between 30 and 40 objects. As with any telescope imaging rig, the darkerbthe skies the better the outcome. So yes you will find the Seestar enjoyable.

​@@gwzapo so i can capture hundreds of objects with the SeeStar s50? We're you able to capture some comets?

@@gigamemes2435 I have not bothered with comets but know folks that have.

@@gwzapo and what about deep sky objects, i can capture hundreds of them and enjoy the moment capturing objects?

@@gigamemes2435 Oh yes!!! But what do you mean, enjoy the moment exactly? I can either be with the Seestar outside in my back yard or at a dark site inside my car and and watch the phone. I also listen to music via Pandora so I listen to my favorite music. Also, using your phone video capture, you can capture both the imaging with the music as well.

Please remember what these smart telescopes are for: it is for the beginner or for folks who don't have time to set up a mount all the time. For me personally, I don't have the time to set up hours at a time for my eq mount and scope. The seestar gives me more time to image and learn about astrophotography processing. To each is own. I also can't lug around huge mounts and telescopes due to a bad back. Sure, there are limitations to this specific smart telescope, but have you seen what the Vespera Smart Telescopes can do? Also, please don't misjudge the Seestar based on what you see here. The Seestar FB groups are full of some rather spectacular images. I'm still learning Pixinsight, but I won't put the Seestar in an eq configuration. I also have not done any mosaic type of imaging with the Seestar like others have.
