Also this is what our setup looks like to shoot such an image:

We shoot this image over two nights to reveal the faint structures of the veil nebula complex.
Shot with a 135mm lens and a Fuji X-T5.
I can recommend this online telescope simulator where you can simulate the field of view with your equipment. Your 300mm lens should be absolutely perfect
This lens is incredibly sharp and produces nearly no coma. Also the image is super flat and the lens also works for full frame cameras. For its high image quality it‘s also used by some more advanced astrophotographers.
As I bought it new for 400€ this was a no brainer because we can also use it for 'normal' photography.
I‘m sure your lens works well for many nebulae!
Thank you! Andromeda is way bigger than most people think. That’s the reason why it is a very (maybe the most) popular target for beginners. Also there went a lot of processing into the image, so don’t let the image deceive you from the actual conditions where I live (Bortle 5 zone)
The lens is the telescope in this case. But as the focal length of 135mm is fairly short it works best for objects appearing very large in the sky. Astrophotography can get very expensive very quickly, so we try to make the most out of the equipment we have. Just like with the 3d printed mount.
The Samyang 135mm f2.0. In some markets it‘s also called Rokinon
Thank you! I agree, it really is an amazing topic.
Glueing and screwing the parts:
One result shot with this mount (and many other accessories):
I found this design and it fitted my need perfectly. It is a mount for a very popular camera lens used in astrophotography. It not only functions as a weight relief for the camera but also allows to rotate the field of view. Moreover it is possible to focus the lens with the installation of a stepper motor, which will be the next step.
The single parts are screwed together with the help of threaded heat inserts. Just to make sure they are also glued together with epoxy, as the mount really needs to hold up. The screws are locked with Loctite.

This was shot under extremely poor conditions with lot of clouds. So this is just a practice shot, but we try to get the best results with the equipment we have, so we will visit this target again with good seeing.
Equipment:
- Fuji X-T5
- Samyang 135mm
- Star Adventurer 2i
Images:
- 217x 60s
- ISO 125

This is my second try at the Andromeda galaxy. This image is shot with an ordinary camera and lens, though the work behind the image is much more than point and shot. The total exposure time is a bit more than 2 hours. For anyone interested in the workflow and equipment:
- Samyang 135mm f2.0 lens
- Fuji XT-5
- 410 images shot @20s exposure time
- calibrated and stacked in Siril
- background extraction with GraXpert
- star removal with Starnet++
- stretched in Siril with GHST and levels in PS
- final editing, star recomposition and cropping in PS

Tl;DR The EU makes sure that third party developers gain access to connectivity features to develop devices like smartwatches, headphones or VR headsets that have a deep integration to the OS.
It is crucial that the request process is transparent, timely, and fair so that all developers have an effective and predictable path to interoperability and are enabled to innovate.
