However, the eVscope certainly does a good job and I like the addition it brings to community science but if I compare the price point and form factor that would also be an interesting comparison 🙂

It has a few options - I would say that Seestar has gradually got better at its own stacking and image adjustments, but on this occasion I also took the FITS files and stacked myself with slight gradient extraction / histogram after

I decided to see the Seestar S50 & Askar80PHQ on the same target (NGC2174 - Monkey Head Nebula) to get a comparison - (editing aside) interesting what the Seestar can do!

I am an amateur astrophotographer based in the UK in Northumberland. Weather permitting I run 2-3 rigs from my own garden observatory.

Absolutely - it is on point every time, I couldn’t recommend it highly enough, very with it and in general very much enjoying the Askar brand!

Received the Seestar S50 today from @FLO_UK (awesome service as always!) and already an awesome little scope by @zwoastro - so simple to get up and running and first outing in cold / windy conditions I went for 25 minutes / 10s exposures on M33
