| Has anyone tried this method of astrophotos
I have obtained some half decent pics of comet holmes, the moon and saturn by simply putting my digital camera (a Canon A630) to the lens of my telescope (Orion Europa 150)and leaving the shutter open as long as possib;e witghout imiage blur ruining the pic, the saturn pics arent exactky amazing but you can see the rings so i have achived what i wanted, a image of saturn that anyone can tell what it is, with a fairly cheap and simple digital camera!
whats more i have no motor drive, im sure if i did my simple method would get much better results
Im doing a postaphon in order to allow me to post pics again, as i dont think you can post pics strait away here. |
