I am new to the field and had first light with my telescope about 2 weeks ago.  I have an Evostar 120 pro ed with a .85 field flattened, HEQ-5 Pro mount, Zwo mini-guide scope with asi120mm camera,asi533mc pro main camera.  Optolong Quad filter, Zwo filter wheel changer.  Looking to learn as much as I can in the field.

Welcome!

Perfect setup to start, you'll find a lot of targets that fit very well within your scope/camera!

Don't hesitate to ask for advice when you'll be encountering the inevitable first (and second, and third) hurdles, be it when imaging, when processing or when looking for your new project! The good thing about this passion of ours is that many of us have gone through the same pains at least once or twice, so you'll find someone who can help you!

Thank you so much for the warm welcome.  My guiding equipment has changed to William Optics Uniguide 50 and an asi224MC camera .  I found that the Zwo 30 was just too small for tracking.  I have tried to find the zen of tracking which has been a challenge but working since I can get 300 second subs now.  Have been lucky with several viewing days.  I live in Bortle 5.5 skies.  Looking forward at attempting the approaching comet.  I will take your advice Basillo and post questions in the forum.
