Better CCD Camera, Mallincam Hyper Color OR OrionPosted By mike selz |
Im interested in getting into deep sky astrophotography from my boca raton fla residence..with a Nexstar 11. ive done visual work on many of the Messier objects the last 6 months but looking to take the plunge for AP...
Looking for something that will give really good images, yet is fairly easy to use. Would an Orion starshoot Pro, or a Mallincam Hyper Plus be preferred? Im interested in astrophotography, as well as seeing the live images taken on the laptop immediately after an exposure. I dont have a wedge, would prefer to do 30-60 sec exposures and just stack them for the time being and have fun playing with that. Ill get a f 6.3 or 3.3 focal reducer if need be...or even the hyperstar f1.9 if that'll help, even though the 3.3/6.3 would cost much less..
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
