NGC 7000 - North American

Posted By Joe McBride
Hi, very nice for a unmodded camera and a zoom lens no less. I have been looking at that lens for a while now and it has good reviews.

Same story, I lost 5 out of 8 shots! Taken with a Canon Xti and a 100 mm Olympus (film) lens set at f/4. Anybody know how images are lost when taking the flash card out of the camera??? Static electricity???

Hi Floyd, the purple in the center is very beautiful! Floyd, you have come a million miles from when you first started imaging...in a short period of time. I enjoy your images and they keep getting better while the targets keep getting more difficult. Thanks for sharing!

Very nice. The gradual arc reminds me of the west coastline all the way up past Wash. Red White and Blue...very patriotic. The West Coast Nebula!!!

M45 - The Pleiades

Posted By Joe McBride
That is a very deep image. You are starting to pick up the background nebula that is all over through this region.

P.S. I picked up a 70mm - 200mm f/4. very nice.

Modifying a Canon 20D into 20Da-like performance?

Posted By Joe McBride
I have heard that the modified cameras are a tad more sensative in the Ha than the 20Da. If your are considering a mod I would get a 400D or later to mod because these have a lot lower noise problems than the early Canons. My 2 cents worth.
