Who needs a mount?

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!

Who needs a mount?

Post by LookingForScope »

Moon Image

Decided to take a photo of the moon tonight with my skywatcher 150P that I bought off a fellow Singastro member (thank you, had plenty fun with it). Decided to impuslsivley try and take a photo of the moon tonight. Shot turned out surprisingly sharp, given that this was taken hand held as I do not yet own a mount... 1/2000s shutter speed saved me. However finding the moon through the scope (I dont own a finder scope yet either) and trying to achieve perfect focus was the most frustrating. But in the end, I had fun. Thanks for viewing!

Edit: Cant get the image thingy to work, but here is the flickr link to my page. Enjoy! https://www.flickr.com/photos/146837681@N03/51585566379
