    Orion really

    From the album: Imaging Attempts

    Heritage 130p Orion is not going to be possible with this camera I don;t think as although it has a CCD it is not picking up enough. In the camera's favour it was clear but very hazy and even the focusing mask would not work on stars, had to use on Jupiter even using the eye piece straight. 6 seconds proved too long as stars are trailing. I suspect higher ISO support is needed for this to have worked. Maximun camera this Kodak will do is 800 though I think this shot was using 400.

    Heritage 130 p Camera Kodak DX6490 attached to GSO 32mm eyepeice on camera thread attachment. Used macro mode as landscape focus was not as good. Camera has some manual cojtrol but ISO very limited.

    Orion bum bag eye peice case. 6 holes, 3 of which can either be 1.25 or 2" size though I have my fatter 1.25 peices in the bigger holes at the front. Side net pockets plus two other pockets for smaller items like filters. Perfect for a starter like me.
