60Da M42 Test

[spacezebra (Petra)]

Hi all

Finally a break in the cloud to get some imaging practice in. I don't post a great deal of images as I am still learning - but I did think that this may be of interest to those that have a 60Da or are thinking of buying one.

There is also a great write up on the 60Da in S&T.

Below is a test of the Canon 60Da, 5 minute sub, ISO400, no processing - straight from the camera.



Comments welcome

Cheers Petra d.

Very nice, Petra. You've got to be pleased with that.
What are your imaging through?

Wow that's a lot of data I too have read the article in S&T - I'm still tossing up between a 60da or a dedicated cooled CCD. Thanks for posting your results!

That's really good Petra! It picks up heaps of detail

A lot of potential there Petra.

Good luck with your future captures!

A good looking photo Petra.

Lots of detail for a single shot.

The 60Da shows a lot of potential.
