Hello All,
Here is my first try ever at digital imaging. I just got a new Sony Digital camera and had to try it out. I don't think I focused very well and I only had 5 frames to stack. But it's a start...
6" f7 homebuilt dob on homebuilt eq. platform
Sony DSC-85 attached with Orion's Steadipix camera mount
32mm Meade SP, 2x Celestron barlow
3x optical zoom on full
Stacked best 5 of 10 images with Astrostack
Did a little unsharp masking within Astrostack (had no idea what i was doing with that!)
Any tips pointers and commetns (especially on how to focus) will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
John
