astrophotography
Hi Guys,
Just got my cgem 1100 recently and still getting to know the equipment. I'd like to start looking into astro imaging. I'm thinking of buying a second hand digital slr specifically for this purpose. So a few questions.
1. Should I go for CCD or CMOS? I've read so many different things. It seems most people go for CCD for astro imaging? but I think CMOS has come a long way too? Is it all much of a muchness?
2. on my cgem 1100 with 9mm eye piece I can barely see jupiter with the belts. As I understand it with the Digital SLR you just attach it with an T-ring but not with an eye piece? I've ready at most people get a barlow? so my question is how can I get the maginification I need to take photos of jupiter?
3. what brand of camera do you guys recommend?
4. any recommended software for processing image stacking or processing the video? Prefer it to be as easy as possible.
Thanks,
