Hi all,
I’m a complete novice so be gentle with me.
My setup is a 6" Dob and a Canon 1000D hand held against the eyepiece.
Last night was my first attempt at taking some pictures and not knowing too much about the camera or the scope I was quite happy with the results. I had some success with Jupiter and the Moon and attempted M45 but it just didn’t have enough light to really see it through the camera.
However, I’m in need of some expert help in understanding which settings are best to use on the camera as well as some very basic guidance in image processing (I have Photoshop CS5) and stacking etc.
Any advice would be great.
Cheers,
Sean
