Ya i normally make the thumbnails but this default one was good enough.

Grats on the new scope. Looking forward to seeing how it performs.

I got the exact same scope and reducer, and I freaking love it. I would say that it's more Achro than APO, but it's right on the line - but it have a little aberrations on the blue color on bight stars, which it no problem for me, with my ZWO 1600GT mono and auto-focuser. It's amazing for the price, and the HA narrowband images it produces, blew my mind.

Yes this scope is no problem for a mono camera.

I owned a 102/1000 mm F10 Bresser achromat for some time, now I purchased the Svbony 102mm ED FPL51 and its significaltly better with a lot less chromatic aberrations.

Hi from Australia. I just purchased the same telescope yesterday. I look forward to your review. Cheers.

Thanks. Thomas and I talked a little more about it at Cherry Springs in my latest video. Ill be sure to do a full test and conclusion soon.

Intersted in your review on this. Especially if you see any CA on it!

Great video. I have had the 102 for a few months and have been very happy with it. Curious whether you’ll be doing a full review with sample images? Would be very interested. Keep up the great work!

Hi TNC (The Narrowband Channel for short). Love your content especially on the underrated Olympus camera system (i have the em1x and em1.3). Your channel deserves more subs. What are your thoughts on the Radian Raptor and the claim that Trevor Jones personally designed it?

A bahtinov mask is a must. Also this scope does have some CA. I covered it in detail in my review. I wold encourage you to watch that. Thanks.

Have you tried live composite on a tracker? Or would in camera stacking give a better result? I'm thinking about getting a tracker and use oly 100-400mm for andromedia and Pleiades.

This is a really good question. You see live comp would not average the pixels to create more dynamic range. Stacking afterwords does though.

I recently purchased the 102 mm svbony. I’m not ready to purchase an expensive tripod as of yet. For the mount piece , is there an adapter piece I ( universal) so I can use on any tripod?

They have a 1/4-20 stud in the vixen rail if I remember right.

I have the 70ed and reducer. I'm testing with a DSLR and i have a Lot of aberration. I don't know if the scope don't go well with DSLR, or back focus between the flattener and DSLR or other issue.

@@TheNarrowbandChannel Problem solved (I think), with Nikon camera. Hardly any appreciable aberration around bright stars. with canon you need a few millimeters of back focus and I think the blue halo in the stack is due to the mirror shaking parts of the mount which are fine for a camera and lenses but not for this kind of weight. It may also be that a bit of wind has contributed to the poor results.

That is interesting. Yes Backfocus can be quite important when it comes to optics. Were the chromatic aberrations on stars on the outside edges or in the middle too?

I am thinking of buying the SV503 102mm. What is your opinion??

You have taken a step backwards with the telescope glass type. That’s why it’s labeled as an achromat. FPL53 in the Skywatcher and FPL51 in the SVbony

@TheNarrowbandChannel

Жыл бұрын

True yes but with narrowband that is not a concern. You can even use an achromat scope for that.

I’m just an amateur, question, can you tell me if there is a mount piece that I can adapt to this so I can use the scope on various tripods?

@@minhtrita5927 More like there are no good quality kits available. So you basically have to buy individual parts to get in to this hobby. SVBONY does have some partial kits that are good but getting a complete system just does not exist. The new ZWO SeeStar might be an exception but as you will see it's an all in one item anyway.
