Camera equip oops!!

[markcollier8]

I have'nt got any fancy equip but I decided to stick my little digital(fuji) up to the eye piece and took a couple shots ,just remembered I did it so here's what happened ..........I think I might give it a another go try holding my hand still next time.:)

It's a start...at least you got a piccie, many don't when they try afocal photography. If you goto Bintel (https://www.bintelshop.com.au/welcome.htm) you can grab yourself an SLR camera mount for around $79. You'll be able to mount your camera on the scope and slide it upto the eyepiece. As long as you have an eyepiece with a good eye relief and you centre your camera correctly, you'll get great piccies....and not just of the Moon....the planets as well:)

Good attempt,
Keep trying, you will get some great results with persistance and bracket to hold the camera still.

Keep it up : )
