An Amateur's Guide to Observing and Imaging the Heavens is a highly
comprehensive guidebook that bridges the gap between the beginners'
and hobbyists' books and the many specialised and subject-specific
texts for more advanced amateur astronomers. Written by an
experienced astronomer and educator, the book is a one-stop
reference providing extensive information and advice about
observing and imaging equipment, with detailed examples showing how
best to use them. In addition to providing in-depth knowledge about
every type of astronomical telescope and highlighting their
strengths and weaknesses, two chapters offer advice on making
visual observations of the Sun, Moon, planets, stars and galaxies.
All types of modern astronomical imaging are covered, with
step-by-step details given on the use of DSLRs and web-cams for
solar, lunar and planetary imaging and the use of DSLRs and cooled
CCD cameras for deep sky imaging.
