First Try At Deep sky Imaging : Orion Nebula

Post by AGMI »

well, just got a new Canon Powershot A510 and it had an auto continuous shooting mode so i tried it on the orion nebula. 171 X 1 second Processed on Registax 3 No darks. Turned out surprisingly well for a whole lotta' 1 second frames. Oh yea, there was no motor drive for the mount.

Hmm, is that the canon digital camera model which starred the tennis beauty maria sharapova? Haha, just got back from a tennis session just now, after a long break from the sports.
