Equipment
Mounts:
The G-11 is permanently housed in an observatory
this is currently the mount which is actively used for imaging.
Digital Photography:
Cameras currently in use for both imaging as well as autoguiding.
The Canon 350D is currently our main camera due to the MUCH
better noise signature than the Canon 20D.
An upgrade to a cooled CCD camera is planned for 2009.
Other:
Everything else currently in use which does not belong into any of the above categories.
Filters, eyepieces as well as other mount controllers can be found here.
