Johnnyaardvark Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 A few trial runs with an ED80 and Nikon D5000. No stacking just a few edits in View NX. Didn't many subs as the clouds started to roll in. Will these links work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyaardvark Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 Thanks Ron. Just a few shots between the clouds as I'd done a bit of visual first. Focusing on something bright in live view seems to work quite well. Not too sure how I'll manage with something fainter. I was quite pleased how they came out though especially with no stacking. Had to sharpen them up and adjust levels a bit as I was short of time for experimenting. The clouds feature a little on the images. Was good to get out and have a go.

xanthic Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Good start I personally haven't had any problems focussing with live view on bright stars. Get yourself a bahtnitov mask if you haven't already and it's a doddle. Stacking moon pics does lower the noise and you'll find the results of sharpening are better.
