very very informative Craig, really enjoyed this. one day i will have to step into the monochrome camera world. please continue your videos and thank you.
Very nice lecture with one mistake, typical for advanced deep space imagers: You definitely can do astrophotography without a telescope! Depending on the target, a regular camera lens, even a wide angle lens, is sufficient to do serious astrophotography. Interestingly, images captured with wide angle lenses are used several times throughout the lecture. These images may not be as detailed as those captured with a telephoto lens or a telescope, but they are great to put the astronomical structures into a greater context. Many deep space imagers and advanced landscape astrophotographers use all the described techniques, like tracking, stacking, narrowband filters, and even cooled monochrome cameras in connection with regular camera lenses.
Absolutely. This was a portion of a larger presentation that also covered wide field night sky photography, even with a cellphone. I was simply clarifying what this portion was about.
Outstanding! Thanks for the video.
Great presentation for the student
I learned something today! Thank you Craig!
