You can re-align RGB using simple channel movement, easy to do even in photoshop, for sub-pixel just do an enlargement first. (Moon shots, Jupiter, Saturn) for perfect alignment you can switch to grayscale and put one layer in negative and 50% opacity, when your picture is gray, it's aligned then reverse to get back to RGB. Always center on green (bayer of the DSLR always had 2x green pixels).

Ive had one for years now and its really lightweight and easy to use with the Starsense. After imaging to the limit of the C8, I now use it only for lunar and solar imaging. Most people will use this as a stepping stone to a true dedicated astro-imaging setup, with ASI camera and long exposure capability, but it isnt optimum for imaging anything but the moon or sun at a more detailed level.

I have had some great planetary images using the GEM. For imaging, I have an SBIG ST-402ME monochrome CCD with colour wheel, with a ZWO AS1200MM-S monochrome CCD for autoguiding. For me, the 8" SCT is the sweet spot for light-gathering ability and portability.

If you want really good planetary views, I would recommend the Explore Scientific 82° 1.25" eyepieces, or even the new 52° series 1.25" eyepieces. Another great option is the Celestron Luminos 1.25" and 2" 82° eyepieces. The 1.25" eyepieces will give great planetary views, but since they have an 82°AFOV, they will also be great for Deep Sky. On the 8 SE you may not use the 82°AFOV to its full potential, but if you ever get a wide-field refractor, they will give amazing views in that too.

You can re-align RGB using simple channel movement, easy to do even in photoshop, for sub-pixel just do an enlargement first. (Moon shots, Jupiter, Saturn) for perfect alignment you can switch to grayscale and put one layer in negative and 50% opacity, when your picture is gray, it's aligned then reverse to get back to RGB. Always center on green (bayer of the DSLR always had 2x green pixels).

I have the 4se Only, you would be amazed at what you can see with even that tbh 😊
Ive had one for years now and its really lightweight and easy to use with the Starsense. After imaging to the limit of the C8, I now use it only for lunar and solar imaging. Most people will use this as a stepping stone to a true dedicated astro-imaging setup, with ASI camera and long exposure capability, but it isnt optimum for imaging anything but the moon or sun at a more detailed level.

Great video. Indeed!
I have one of these. The Alt-Az is fine for optical viewing and astrophotography of bright planets and DSOs, but I also have a GEM (German Equatorial Mount) for long-duration autoguiding. I have had some great planetary images using the GEM. For imaging, I have an SBIG ST-402ME monochrome CCD with colour wheel, with a ZWO AS1200MM-S monochrome CCD for autoguiding. For me, the 8" SCT is the sweet spot for light-gathering ability and portability.

I guess u don't really understand it then. this telescope came out 1999, called Nexstar in a light grey tube then it became the nexstar1 now its nexstarse models. its not meant to be a imaging scope. it was made to be a large size but portable scope. I carry the whole thing ots on the arm and tripod with ONE hand. what other 8" can u carry the whole setup with one hand? if you thought that the single fork arm was a rock solid mount or for imaging then u didn't do your homework that's what the cpc scope were made for.
Please try to photography Asteroid/Kepler's Belt between Mars and Jupiter....
Para todos los que se ilusionan, por el telescopio ese ni de lejos se ve asi, esas imagenes estan prosesadas con un programas (editadas) sin ese programa se ve todo mucho mas difuminado y sin colores salvo los planetas

I have been using the advanced VX8 myself for 2 years now and it is such an amazing mount! The stability it offers is amazing if you are looking to take clear photos. Also it has a feature called “all star polar align” which makes the polar alignment without a polar scope possible(I don’t believe most mounts come with that feature) Very robust design, it feels like it will last for years and years.

If you want really good planetary views, I would recommend the Explore Scientific 82° 1.25" eyepieces, or even the new 52° series 1.25" eyepieces. Another great option is the Celestron Luminos 1.25" and 2" 82° eyepieces. The 1.25" eyepieces will give great planetary views, but since they have an 82°AFOV, they will also be great for Deep Sky. On the 8 SE you may not use the 82°AFOV to its full potential, but if you ever get a wide-field refractor, they will give amazing views in that too.
