Hi All

I recently got a Moonglow Allsky camera.
I am currently testing the camera to see what it can do.
For a bit of fun, I have it uploading live images every 5 minutes to my website. The images will continue to be updated to around 11:00pm Qld time tonight.

The camera is currently sitting on a box in the backyard, it will eventually be mounted onto the roof for a better view.

Orion is visable in the north / west. Pitty about the bright moon.

Cooooool Brendan :)

Looks great but that Moon is about to send the whole image white.
Funny how the house lights go on and off too :P

Overall, a great view so you know whether to set up or not :thumbsup:

They're a great wee camera, IMO, and a good investment.

Looks like a very nice unit Brendan. It is weatherproof as well. Performance is very good.


This is a thread from some time back (2006) where a possum sat on my all sky camera.

The Moonglow Tech ASC is not much bigger than a salt shaker, and I suspect we'd see a lot more than we'd like should a possum ever try to sit on one.

I said I was testing the camera. I guess I have still some bugs to get rid of.
