Hello!!! I'm asking about OnStep. I also have OnStep v5 for an EQ3-2, but the maximum exposure I can do with it is 10 seconds. If I set it longer, the stars stretch into trails with my Canon EOS 7D and Celestron AstroMaster 130. I set everything up very precisely. Do you know what the problem might be?

Hello, set up the mount more precisely on the pole, and to take long exposures you need guiding.
