    Ich liebe die Sonnenuntergänge hinter Schleierwolken oder der Feinstaubglocke über Köln.

    You are right that for lunar and planetary, you don't even need a tracking mount. I took this image of Eratosthenes crater with a #60mm unguided telescope. I did use the #NexImage Celestron camera which is a converted web cam. I wrote software that could track the non guided image across the fov, and could then align and combine frames.

    I'm a big fan of small telescopes and what can be done with them. What you've done with your Messier 16 photo is FANTASTIC.

    I'm just not well set up for star photography, but I've done some #lunar and #planetary photography with small instruments.

    The following photo of #jupiter was taken with an unmotorized #60mm refractor. The #yorick stacking software combined about 60 frames for the image. This was taken in 2010 when the SEB did one of its disappearing acts.

    Nice image. I was just reading about your scope. Sounds like a flexible package.

    I have just about the opposite type of refractor, a #60mm f/17 long (very long) focus refractor. It, like your scope, can deliver fine images, though I've only tried lunar/planetary photography. And I certainly cannot do the wide field photography you do.

    Here's a shot of #Tycho through my 60mm using a stack of around 50 frames.

  9. If you've ever wondered if the Moment lenses for smartphones are worth it, here's a throwback to a few years ago using a Pixel 2. The one on the left used the Moment telephoto lens.
