Chrissyo's Astrophotography



Uploaded by: ChrissyoSpace
Video Description:
This is an arrangement of a bunch of my astrophotographs. They were all taken from 2005 up until early 2007. About half of these images were taken with a Dobsonian mount whereas the other half were taken with an EQ6 mount.
These images and more can be found at my deviantART page:

The music is Moonlight Sonata.
Enjoy! If you have questions, feel free to ask :)

I usually take my images with a magnification of around 960X - 1250X.

Thanks! I don't think mine would work with that much. I have a celestron c6-n reflector with the cge5 mount.

You don't need as much magnification as I use to get some detail. You can probably get nice results with 500X or less magnification. I guess you'd just have to give it a try to see what works well with your scope and camera.

Nope. There are no current telescopes that can resolve that kind of detail on the moon (not even the Hubble space telescope can).

Excellent shots. How much would a scope and an adapter for a Canon dSLR set you back?

I have no idea, it would depend on the telescope. A SRL adapter doesn't cost very much though (less than $100).

Nice job...I am just starting out. I am somewhat dissapointed with my 4.5 reflector. i want more detail on planets galaxies nebulas
This is also my yahoo id any suggestions on what to buy next would be greatly appriciated...Thanks again
Well as they say, ... ( 7 months ago by ChrissyoSpace)
Well as they say, aperture is king. The larger the primary mirror/lens on your telescope, the more light it will be able to gather and thus the better nebulae, galaxies etc will look. Assuming you don't really care too much about tracking abilities, a large Dobsonian based Newtonian telescope would be fairly nice.

I'm getting a Zhumell 10" Dobsonian Reflector Telescope would I be able to get views like yours?

Awesome! How long was the Jupiter exposer? It would be stunning to see Jupiter in motion via time-lapse with the moons orbiting around it. Even if you don't have tracking capability, you can still line up your exposures using slideshow software.5*****

Okay man has landed on the moon because when they did they put mirrors on it. Then out in Califonia they fire huge lasers at those mirros and measure how long it takes to come back. So MAN HAS LANDED ON THE MOON!

how did you get your dobsonian to stay still long enough to do photogrpahy, and what did you use? NexImage?
Just a lot of ... ( 1 month ago by ChrissyoSpace)
Just a lot of practise with hand tracking - I do my best to keep the object in the camera's field of view while pushing the telescope by hand. It doesn't give the best of results though, so my images taken with my EQ6 mount are much better.
As for cameras, I used to use just a Panasonic video camera attached afocally to my eyepiece, but I now use a DMK21AU04.

Haha, thanks for the kind words! :) When I bought my telescope several years ago it cost about $700 australian.
