    Recommend me a car?

    Theres loads of decent second hand cars out there, any of them will probably be fine ! The hard part is something that no one here can help you with, and thats finding a good one ! My recommendation would be a Peugeot 306 diesel. They're about group 3 for insurance, and a nice "Meridian" spec...

    Gone full circle !

    I joined here back in 2007 after buying a Panasonic DMC-FZ50 bridge camera and finding the site via a Google search !! I posted some pics I'd taken with the Panny and got some great feedback off members here and quickly learned an awfull lot. "Big "UP" to TP there" :D then. After a while...

    Celestron t ring adapter question...

    I bought a t ring and adapter to use my Canon 400D on my Astromaster 130 telescope. I can't get the camera to focus at all. The above affair leaves the camera 4 or 5 cm's away from the edge of the focusing barrel on the scope. But in order to get focus, the camera needs to be...

    Meade Telescopes....

    What dealer ? I bought it from Amazon.. But yes, There is a "T" adapter which you can use to mount the camera body to the scope. I havn't bought an adapter yet, I'll get used the night sky and the scope before I start taking pics. !!

    Meade Telescopes....

    OK, Thanks to everyone with your suggestions and advice ! I've gone for a Celestron Astromaster 130EQ ! £120 from Amazon ! Being a numpty though, and in my rush, I ordered the one without the motor drive. It is available seperately so I'll get one next pay day ! Thanks again !!

    Always carry your camera

    If I always took my camera with me, I'd have several thousand shots of squirrels and blackbirds. If I took your jouney to work, then yes I would probably take my camera with me ..... .... except its illegal to stop on the motorway to take pics. etc etc etc

    Meade Telescopes....

    Hmm, Thanks for the advice, keep it comming. Spolg, I didnt have a particular model in mind, just wanted something decent for around the hundred quid mark...... Mischief, you say the one you bought was a waste of money, is there anything specific to avoid then ? Thanks again ....

    Meade Telescopes....

    I'm looking at buying a used telescope for about a hundred quid. I've seen a few "Meade" ones on a well known auction site that I like the look of. Are these any good, they certainly look that part. The other I've seen is Celestron, but I've heard these are more "beginner" than actual...
