Tractor Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 I picked up a canon 5Dmk2 last winter and finally got a clear night to use it on my telescope. I'm very impressed with what a couple is quick frames looked like and can't wait to do some serious imaging with it to see how it turns out. Ring Nebula, C-8 at 2032mm 30sec frame at ISO 6400. I was very impressed for a single JPEG straight from the camera. http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f185/EWhytsell/IMG_0955.jpg Whirlpool Galaxy, C-8 at 2032mm 30sec frame at ISO 12800. Not bad at all at about 70deg ambient temp. If I shot a few more frames and processed them I could easily remove the noise and have a nice shot. http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f185/EWhytsell/IMG_0957.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hal Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 I'm a little surprised by the picture. I thought you would have lit the cat on fire to kill it. Fag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hal Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 DEVIL CAT! That would be a badass wallpaper. Tractor probably doesn't like it because you can't see terror in its eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractor Posted June 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 what telescope and adapter are you using? i was wanting to shoot through mine for when the moon was super close but was unable to get an adapter in time. I use a Celestron C8 with what they call a T-adapter and then a canon EOS style coupler. Later tonight I'm gonna give the 5Dmk2 a real test by shooting the Veil Nebula through either my 70-200L 2.8 or 28-135 lenses. Depends whether the dew stays away long enough or not as its a very faint object and will take a lot of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
