Hi Calton
May I cmplment you upon a most inspiring post.
You raise a good point re jargon.
And I for one will be more careful and qualify terms... You need a good PA will change that's for sure.
The other night (although I did not post the result) given my success with accidentally using a high ISO (a camera setting regulating to light recognition of the camera) and finding I could get away with a ISO way way past anything anyone would dare to use...and as the Milky Way was directly above...I set the ISO to maximum, a crazy crazy 25600 set the camera to take multiple 2 second shots laid it down on the roof of the observatory under construction on a piece of board and let it click away...no mount not even a tripod..I really should have posted the result...so for beginners all you need is your DSLR ...so I hope that may start folk contributing such experiments.
And the photo I ended up with was pretty flash really...but I was tired and deleted it when I saw how the idea worked.
