Patrick, I would need you to mail me the off-axis guider (increase in price, of course), but I’m interested in purchasing it. E-mail me at my personal address and give me a quote. Dave On Apr 1, 2011, at 12:22 AM, Patrick Wiggins wrote:
Hi Chuck,
Unlike Tyler and Joe I've never used a separate guide scope.
I used to use an off-axis guider (and still have it for sale cheap if anyone needs one) but ever since I got an imager with a built in guide chip that's all I've ever used.

I'm curious as to what the seasoned imagers on the list use when selecting a guide star, specifically, swapping an eyepiece parfocal with the autoguider, or a flip-mirror?
I'm also guessing that Newtonian users don't have the back-focus to use the flip mirror.
Thanks!
