January 4, 2025 Dwarf 3 First Light
I got to test run Dwarf 3, a 35mm smart telescope today despite very cloudy sky. When there was some thin clouds covering the Sun this afternoon. I try to image the Sun in white light using it's magnetic solar filter but I was only able to get a single frame shot of the Sun showing numerous sunspots on the solar disk. Hopefully can test out further in the days to come. But very surprised with its solar tracking and dead on and didn't even move during my hide and seek time with the Sun.
Then in the early evening, I again saw some clearing for me to test image the Waxing Crescent Moon using its Astro mode to stack around 50 frames despite pesky clouds passing in front of the Moon.
I still hope to test out DSO imaging later tonight if I got some clearing but it's an iffy condition I think but still hoping...
