I would like to add that eclipse photography is as simple or as intense as what you want it to be.
Of course it is practicable to manually do a set of bracketted exposures. After all that is what we were doing in all the years before DSLRs & computer control.
Computer control certainly is not necessary. But it is quite easy to operate and it gives a huge amount of flexability to produce exactly what you want from your eclipse photography. A huge bonus is that it can do this autonomously so you can sit back and enjoy the marvellous spectacle and still have your images.
Anyone attending astrofest will have two opportunities to get info on this.
I will be giving a presentation on the first Sunday (2PM) on the eclipse and eclipse photography and then Xavier and I will do a joint presentation on the second Friday at 1PM.
Look forward to seeing you there.
Terry
