Adrian Condon Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 The photo was taken 29th March 2006 at 13:55 local time (Turkey) using my Swarovski ATS/80 birding scope with the Eyepiece at about mag 30.The camera is a Nikon 4500 digital compact, with a remote control to reduce camera shake. the camera lens set to 7.8mm (Ie wide angle) at 1/1000 sec @f/4.2 ISO setting 200 ASA.Prints at A4 size are fine. However, to get it on here I have reduce the size of the shot (and the quality, life is always a trade-off!!). I attach the new photo so that you can hopefully appreciate it a little clearer.CheersAdrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLO Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 ... using my Swarovski ATS/80 birding scope with the Eyepiece at about mag 30.Way to go Adrian I recently used a Swarovski ATS80 with an astro adapter and a Plossl eyepiece to view the Moon - absolutely fantastic It was really nice to see everything-right-way up and not back-to-front.
