How-To: Astrophotography with a Dob!

Hi guys.

I've finally written a how-to guide for dob-based astrophotography. It's been something i've been meaning to write for a while now, and over the last few weeks i've finally finished it off.

Here's a teaser:

Quote:
Dobsonians are usually purchased for their cheap aperture, quick setup and ease of use for beginners. People don't buy dobsonians with a plan to doing astrophotography. In fact, i've read many times that astrophotography with a dob just can't be done and that you shouldn't bother trying.

Well i'm here to tell you that it can be done, and show you the ways you can do it! You can produce some quite good results with a dob, it just requires practise, patience and perseverance.. and it doesn't have to cost a lot of money.
You can get to the article from the How-To page, or direct via this link:
