Hi John
For a good all-round book on astro photography, try the following:
“Astrophotography for the Amateur” by Michael A. Covington.
The website is here:
http://www.covingtoninnovations.com/astro/
The topic of astro photography spans such a huge range of equipment, cameras, costs, target objects, techniques, approaches, processing, etc that it can be very hard to give advice in a brief e-mail reply.
If you Click the text “Sample Pages” in the left hand navigation bar on the web page above, you will get the Table Of Contents for the book.
Or, try this direct link to the PDF file.
