    Notes:

    I have had my levy comet hunter from months in my closet without able to use it for astrophoto due to the sky view pro mount just cannot load it well for photography purposes, this is my first time loading my levy comet hunter on the Atlas mount and i have to tell you, for the Atlas it was just a happy ride with this baby.
