Equivalent of "Photon" book for planetary?

[ismangil]

Hi,

I am just starting to get back to stargazing, currently trying to decide if I wanted to do astrophotography or not.

I've got the Photon book which is excellent for me, I now know what is involved for deep sky work.

Is there an equivalent book for planetary?

I think once I have that kind of book I will have the complete info on how best to start spending my money to balance my needs.

Thanks!

Martin Moberleys book, "The Lunar and Planetary Webcam Users Guide" is a good starting point. Its a little out of date on the camera side of things but still decent enough.

Not a book as such but a mine of info is Australian Amateur Astronomy - IceInSpace

Look for stuff by Mike Salway.

Thanks for the tips!

I've also found another one by Tony Buick. Downloaded samples on my Kindle, however I'll probably buy the paper book, used most likely, as photos are not good on ebooks like Kindle.
