DSLR advice
Hi Iceman,
Very much appreciate the comprehensive reply, very helpful!
A few answers to your questions and a few extra questions from me:
- My budget is around $1500 (although thats what i said when i was looking for a scope...)
- I will probably use the camera equally between astro/terrestrial, but possibly a little biased towards terrestrial photography.
- Yes i'll be using the C8, i doubt i will be upgrading for a few years just yet!
- How would things be different if i was primarily interested in photographing planets? (which i'm not, but i'd like to keep things capable all round if i can)
- Can you tell me more about guidescopes? I'm quite unfamiliar.
- What's involved with processing astrophotography? Software etc etc
- Are there any good general guides to astrophotography out there?
Thanks very much for your help! I only got my C8 six months ago (a graduation present to myself), a very frustrated start in the hobby was made much easier some great and helpful people on the ISS forum. Now i can't get enough!
Nathan
