Looking at the chart the 1100 look better In what sense better, there are things like bigger, higher resolution rear screens, more mega pixels, later DIGIC versions, HDMI connection, video, live view face detection etc etc , none of which will enhance your astro' photos.

happy-kat Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 You already own a DSLR, granted it is a Nikon but there are Nikon imagers on this forum, have you posted what your problems are so as to see if they can be overcome? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking that BackyardNikon might be suitable, but apparently it doesn't support the D3xxx cameras. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fozzybear Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 IF you get the canon you can get a nifty fifty lens 50mm or equiv manufacture for widefield view of the milky bar kid... for peanuts piggybacked on the scope... Just a thought as well I use one on my 450d albeit not tried it yet, but use it for portrait's of the family slightly off topic.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fozzybear Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 you will need an intervalometer remote control about 10-15 quid off amazon or built a serial cable/dsub controller that connects to your pc for +30 sec exposures https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=intervalometer+canon&crid=1UYJ1GNLLO04E&sprefix=interval%2Caps%2C194&ref=nb_sb_ss_i_3_8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whistlin Bob Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I bought a 600d from Camera Jungle 18 months ago- it's been really good, I'd happily get another. The nifty fifty recommended above can give great photos, but it's a beggar to manually focus it at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't use a laptop so I use DSLR Controller to focus the canon 1100d makes focus much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
