Big Al Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Lovely pic. And so close to catching the jewelled handle on Sinus Iridium. I've only seen that once, more by luck than judgement. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bino-viewer Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 Thankyou all I don't consider myself a 'proper' imager as such, but i do enjoy having a play..... From home my light pollution is so dire, i'm restricted to only Lunar, Solar and planets. I have a close up shot as well from lasts nights Lunar session where i went a bit daft and used a 4x Powermate AND a 2x Powermate together. Not so easy with an unpowered alt-az mount, the moon looked very dim. But with this camera (Sony A7s) i'm using, not a problem. It will happily work at 51200 iso, and the focus peaking on the camera makes focusing a doddle. I will post it once i've processed it a touch.
