Tonights pass of the ISS

Well done, that's a hard shot to get!

[Solitarian]

Yes, good score

[PeterEde (Peter)]

Certainly not an easy target to follow mounted on a GEM

May I know how did you make it close to focus?

[PeterEde (Peter)]

I focused on the moon just before the ISS passed over.
Tried again tonight and failed.
Also have to get shutter and ISO right or you over exposed

[malau (David)]

Thanks a lot. So after you get it focus you have to point the telescope to the right direction and wait for the ISS appears in your scope?

It's pretty bright. Hard to miss. Hard part is tracking it. I was using live view but discovered looking through the camera view finder much easier
