Hello and welcome. I'd like to ask everyone that houses Seastar S50. Is the device limited to stars? Last night, I went to photograph some deep space objects like the California Nebula. When the device is about to process the image, it says it cant stack the image all together because there are fewer stars in the area. So what? Does this mean you can't photograph any type of deep-space objects where there are fewer stars to process the image, so u can only photograph the many stars around a specific object? If so then it sucks. I thought the device could do it without any limitations. |

| Yes it can photograph deep space objects. Did you try another target? How much light pollution do you have?? |

Yes, it can photograph deep-space objects. Did you try another target? How much light pollution do you have?? Well, I live in a village, and according to the light pollution map in the app, it says green; I don't know what that means. Does it mean Average light pollution or acceptable? But I did photograph Andromeda galaxy, which was successful, and the ghosts of Cassiopeia. |

Depends on the map. Sky brightness is usually measured in magnitude per arc/sec. A more general rating would be the Bortle scale. Did you photograph those objects with the S50? |

Depends on the map. Sky brightness is usually measured in magnitude per arc/sec. A more general rating would be the Bortle scale. Well, currently, that is the only thing I can do deep-space images with, So yes. I'm still learning to find objects that I can capture. One thing that bothers me here is that you can't capture any objects in 5 degrees or what. This is sad because most of the objects are up and above the horizon. |

What do you mean by 5 degrees? like if u want to look above near the zenith. The device is somehow telling me that you cant observe objects that are above 5° or sonething and need to look for other object. |

| Ahhhh, that's interesting. All alt/az telescopes have trouble when pointing near the zenith. If you've ever used a Dobsonian telescope you'll know what I'm talking about. I'm not surprised that it has this limitation. |
