hey guys,
I just have a question of what is limiting my photos. I assume that alot of you guys are shooting with thousands of dollers of equipment and I am working with a few hundred dollers worth and that my be my issue. But I just wanted to check considering all the experience you all have in the field of astrophotography.
Here is my setup:
130mm Orion Spaceprobe on and EQ-2 mount W/astrotrack drive
Logitech 3000 webcam (not modified for long exposure)
Location: Raleigh, NC
I will attach some photos from Friday when conditions(from Raleigh Clear sky clock) were CC-10,T-5,S-4. Which is about as good as we get here.
My shots are not as clear as the ones you all post and I wanted to know what is limiting my shots. Is it apertrue, seeing, my technique, etc. Should I be expecing less due to my setup?
any info would be helpful.
thanks guys
