My 3rd Attempt on Night Sky Pics!

Post by boothee »

Hi !

I've been trying to take some wide angle night sky pics since I've bought a small point and shoot digital camera. Here are some cropped pictures of them. It looks a bit noisy.

Comments and ideas are welcome!

Camera: Samsung Digimax S800
Exposure: 8 Secs
ISO: 400
F.Ratio: 2.8
Light File: 20 pics
Dark File: 10 pics (Just close the lens file and shoot-Same ISO, Same Exposure)
Cropped picture from 8.1 Mega Pixel
Software used: Deep Sky Stacker

Just stacked and did not do any other post processing.

Cheers!!
