Customer Reviews
I recieved a Dwarf 3 in the mail about 2 weeks ago and last night was the first night since I bought it that it wasn't cloudy. I was anxious to try it out since I got it and I finally got a chance to see how good it was for myself. My first target was the Andromonda galaxy but when I checked to see what time it was visible, it was after 3am, well past my bedtime. I didn't want to lose a night's sleep so I googled to see if I could set the dwarf up to do astrophototography before sunset to autonomously photogragh Andromenda overnight. I found out I could, so I asked the AI assistance in the Dwarf 3 app how I would set it up. Instead of giving me a list of steps I had to be complete, the AI assistant actually did all the setup for me in half a second! All I had to do was attach the Dwarf to a tripod and place it outdoors. Since this was my first attempt at astrophotography I decided to use alt-az mode instead of equatorial mode so no further setup was required. This setup seemed too easy so I didn't expect it to work. I was thinking that I must have left out something. The next day when I looked in the app Album, where images are stored internally on the Dwarf, I was amazed to see a thumbnail image of the Andromanda galaxy with a timestamp of 3:35 am. I looked like the images seen on the Internet, and at first I thought that's what it was. The only things that made me believe it were the timestamp and the file name had "stacked" in its name. Not only had the Dwarf automatically taken dozens of 15 second image exoposures, it had automatically did all the image stacking so I was pesented with the final image. I had thought that even if the Dwarf had done the exposures correctly I still would have had to do the stacking myself th next day, but that was not the case - everything is automatic. This image, taken in alt-az mode with 15 second exposures, is so good I can only imagine future sessions where I put the Dwarf in eq. mode, allowing much longer image exposures resulting in even more details popping out. Astrophotography is no longer just for night owls, us early to bed and early to rise folk can also participate.
Far easier, and quicker, to set up and use than my 8” Mak, and the results are almost as good. I particularly like it’s wide FOV. You can leave it plugged into the charger if you are worried about leaving it to run all night. The image processing through the Dwarf website is quick and better than I can do. Polar alignment was easy. I’ve been using it in light-polluted Calgary. With its very small size that will fit in carry-on luggage, I look forward to taking it on trips.
Gift for my wife. It has been too cold to try it. I will get back to you when we do. Thanks, Glenn
Well, it took 3 weeks to finally get a clear night sky. Started with the simple things; The Moon, Andromeda Galaxy and M42. Very happy with the results using auto settings in Stellar Studio. Using the telescope at -25c; it worked but it eats the battery - managed a 300 stack on M42 with 70% battery used. Looking forward to forward to learning and seeing more (in warmer temps!)
This image of Andromeda is from my back porch practically in the middle of Calgary. What an amazing little device. I can't to try it somewhere really dark. I've owned 3 telescopes and this is the first one I really use. While the app could be clearer in some ways if you ask AI how to use the Dwarf3 it'll provide clear instructions and tips to get the best images.
