Nick Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 That's actually a lot less than I was expecting for a moon shot like that, looks really good! Can you capture planets at all? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you capture planets at all? Yes pretty much, using same telescope and tripod/mount by the way the mount has dual axis motor drive to track objects, but for planets would swap camera for something like a modded webcam or proper planetary camera, capture an avi video file then process the footage into a single pic by stacking frames, sounds complicated but pretty basic once you get started with it, i dont do planet imaging, dont have the patience for it though i did do Saturn once, not sure where the pic is now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
