Don't buy the Sony A5000/5100 for astrophotography
in Discussions - Cameras
Posted · Edited by 1crem1
This is an old topic but the camera (Sony a5100) is still good for astrophotography, and much cheaper now second hand.
I learned the hard way that the only way to remove LENR from it is to telnet the command to it. This took a bit of research for me to do – but it has been successful and a lightbulb moment for me.
So: I don't have to use the dinky apps, just the camera, as it is driven by the astronomy guiding/imaging software I use – Kstars. No LENR, bulb etc all works fine. Hopefully this will be useful to the one or two out there in a similar predicament…
cheers
