Disappointed with Canon Xsi so far

Posted By Michael DiOrio

Michael
I think,like with my D70s,the reason for the 5 minute delay between 5 minute shots is that it takes a dark frame.
maybe Canon is different. never used one.

So here's my first attempt, and I didn't even use a telescope! 32 exposures, dark, flat, bias and light. Stacked in Deepskystacker, pretty much fumbled through it. Canon 20D, 70-200L IS, 1.4TC for focal length of 280mm (448mm 35mm equivalent) mounted on my GPDX.
