Although astronomical CCD cameras can be very costly; digital cameras ndash; the kind you use on holiday ndash; on the other hand; are relatively inexpensive. Moreover; their technology ndash; especially thermal noise; sensitivity (ISO number) and resolution ndash; has progressed to a point where such cameras are more than capable of photographing the brighter astronomical objects. Now Tony Buick has teamed up with fellow author and astro imager Phil Pugh; to produce a completely revised; updated; and extended second edition to How to Photograph the Moon and Planets with your Digital Camera; first published in 2006. The revisions take into account changing (and improving) camera technology; and some items which are now available commercially but which previously had to be home-made. The section of solar observing has been expanded to include observing by H-alpha light; and among the many additional sections are photographing the constellations; aurorae; and basic post-imaging processing.
