Hello guys. Recently bought my first (used) go-to mount. Skywatcher Star Adventurer GTi. I'll try it this night. I've been trying to take pictures with my astromaster 130eq but it was quite hard with that mount. I'll put a Nikon D7200+Sigma 150-600mm lens on it. Only thing is it didn't come with clouds included ☁️, the sky is clear this night lol.

I’ve got the same mount and it works quite well once you’ve got things ironed out. You’ll need some kind of computer to control the mount, or a dedicated box (I’ve been using an Asiair Mini and it’s worked perfectly for my needs).
And so you know, that cap on the finderscope will get knocked off if you look at it wrong!
First light (eben though it’s a mount) on first day is a really special feeling. Had that with my RedCat 51, too, two weeks ago.
Make sure you pay your cloud bill or the rest of us will be angry we can’t image!
