Whar does it take to get started with imaging?

Posted By James Witt
Inge,

I am by no means one of the decent images here but I just snagged one of these on the used market. All you need is a camera. Should be great for the wide field stuff. Compact and very portable, no scope either. Some links that you may find interesting, maybe not either.

Woa,

... another incredible image Stefan. BTW (not that it really matters) isn't the image 180 degress out?

Sweet,

Congrat Floyd!

Guess you passed on Marks TMB. Anyway, can't wait to see your images with the NP101.

Fantastic FC100N

Posted By James Witt
Hi Robert,

Strange you should mention this as I too was viewing Jupiter only with my FC-100 binoscope. Sure wish I would of been up in the mountains, instead of my home in Phoenix.

Tools and finders

I'm in Arizona. Is there a website available that list hits? This sounds interesting. I would like to know a little more about detectors myself. Anyone want to chime in?
