Although astronomical CCD cameras can be very costly, digital
cameras the kind you use on holiday on the other hand, are
relatively inexpensive. Moreover, their technology especially
thermal noise, sensitivity (ISO number) and resolution has
progressed to a point where such cameras are more than capable of
photographing the brighter astronomical objects.
Now Tony Buick has teamed up with fellow author and astro imager
Phil Pugh, to produce a completely revised, updated, and extended
second edition to How to Photograph the Moon and Planets with your
Digital Camera, first published in 2006. The revisions take into
account changing (and improving) camera technology, and some items
which are now available commercially but which previously had to be
home-made. The section of solar observing has been expanded to
include observing by H-alpha light, and among the many additional
sections are photographing the constellations, aurorae, and basic
post-imaging processing.
