Electronically Assisted Astronomy (EAA) with an SCT on an Alt-Az Mount

In this video we explore the use of a Schmidt Cassegrain (SCT) telescope on an Alt-Az Mount for Electronically Assisted Astronomy (EAA). I explain the advantages of an SCT compared to a refractor or a Newtonian. I also discuss how an Alt-Az mount is a popular choice for EAA because of its low cost, light weight and ease of setup. I go over the setup procedure and show how to achieve the correct back focus spacing for a digital camera with a set of spacers. I demonstrate the 3 star alignment process and show how it puts 3 different deep sky objects in the field of view and use SharpCap to capture live images of the Orion Nebula, M82 the Cigar Galaxy and M51 the Whirlpool Galaxy.
