The Moon 16:30-17:00 17/12/07

Well done to you and your bro. Those are seriously impressive. It goes to show that astrophotography can be as simple or as complex as you want to make it.

How can I edit my post to replace the links with smaller versions?

I took some in a similar fashion through the skylux, using my Fuji S5500

Not as detailed as the ones above though - I could only keep it steady with a 20mm eyepiece...

They're some nice images!

Glad to know this is possible with the Skylux, must try it myself. Although I'll have a little more trouble with my Casio Exilim S500 I'd imagine!

Doh! I was logged out when I was looking for the edit button. Anyone know why cookies aren't working for me on this site btw. Have to re-login for nearly every post even when I click the option to permanently login.

Davema. I wonder is it something to do with the Hyperion Widefield EP's. Huge eye Lense even on the High Mag pieces like the 8, 5 and 3.5mm EP's I used. Much easier to line up the camera lense with the EP lense whereas if I had have use my 10mm Sirius Plossl that came with the scope it would have been much harder. The eye lense on that was tiny.

Yes, for good afocal coupling you need a big eyepiece lens and a small camera lens, and the ability to get them very close to each other.

Those are excellent shots, especially for a phone!
