Reply to comment by QVkW4vbXqaE in Using specialized processing techniques, I managed to photograph Jupiter with a backyard telescope. by backyardspace

The telescope was a 12" Meade lx200 acf ota that I had mounted to a skywatcher eq6-r pro mount and a zwo asi224mc camera. I Also use a zwo adc in my image train. I then use autostakkert for stacking and registax for wavelet processing

How much does the whole setup cost?

My setup if you bought new would be around 6k but I've seen people get similar results with a used $400 dobsonian telescope. It just requires a lot more patience and a steady hand.
