theboyfold Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Hi all Doing this a little back to front as it's my second thread, I've just taken delivery of my scope and looking forward to setting it up and playing with it.Trouble is I'm spending lots of time away from home at the moment so I'm not spending anytime on it at all at the moment.Looking forward to learn about the photography side of things and understanding what's up there!Based in Berkshire where it seems we have some nice places to have a look at the night sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesM Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Hi and welcome to the forum.Could try and get a copy of Steve Richards "Making Every Photon Count" (FLO £19.95) which will detail everything you will want to know about imaging, the kit and the techniques to get the level of image you're after - might even save you some money in knowing what to avoid!Clear skiesJames Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
