Mission for Canon EOS 400D owners

CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!

Mission for Canon EOS 400D owners

Post by Barry »

Hi all,

I have a special mission for anyone with a Canon EOS 400D (AKA Rebel)DSLR and a standard 18-55 Lens.

I am writing an article on light pollution.

All I need is a photo from the capital cities listed below.
I will choose from several submissions if anyone is interested.

Please PM me with your interest and I will provide image capture parameters.

I will publish the link address to the completed article on the forums, with image credits listed for those chosen.

Cities in random order:

Sydney
Tokyo
New York
London
Moscow
Beijing
Paris
Berlin
Cairo
Singapore
New Delhi
Buenos Aires
Copenhagen
Athens
Rome
Baghdad
Wellington (NZ)
Abu Dhabi
Washington D.C.

Cheers,

Baz.

Thanks mate, but no, it needs to be pretty specific. If you are still interested in helping out and have a Canon EOS 400D, then please let me know.

Thanks anyway mate.

Due to the lack of response, I have decided to do away with this list of cities. I will take entries from any large city in the world.

I'm not sure why I have has so little interest. So far only one person has actually delivered a photo. I feel the subject of light pollution is likely to be something near and dear to all astronomers/astrophotographers hearts.

Anyway, the offer still stands, if you want to help out, please PM me and I will provide image capture details so you can snap a bit of your night sky and send it to me.

Remember- in an effor to control the different sensitivities of sensors, Canon EOS 400D's only.

Looking forward to your efforts,

Baz.
