Hope you make it. 🪐

Nice! You so often had your bird target flying in the form of a plane just taking off or landing with its wheels under the belly.

So "painting"-ful!!! 🍎 🍎🍎

Awesome! Thinking about your place, you could easily deliver better images due to less light pollution. However, BF is correct that s.s. may need to be faster to avoid washout. I wrongly posted the Exif from the shot I set for the moons but washed out Jupiter. The one I better captured Jupiter...

Welcome! Where is I.O.M.?

Peter, It was a single-exposure image without tracking. Shutter speed: 1/160", iso: 800, f/9. The Exif is shown below. I guess the image could be improved by multi-longer exposures with tracking and stacking. But I am still pondering how to make large-size high-quality images (the image I posted...

You need to copy the firmware file to the memory card you use with your camera and then install it on your camera. GL

Another try under poor weather conditions and everything was difficult: I used z600mm lens with TC1.4 for an 840mm focus length (very small FOV), before even focusing it was extremely hard to find/place the object in the LV by adjusting the tripod head, then came the horrible manual focusing...

You may want to play a little with exposure adjustment: ISO, shutter speed, and aperture. For example, lower ISO and shutter speed could improve your "light but washed" sample. Your "lighter" one is good, but you could slower s.s. to match your desire. Another way to adjust is to set auto-iso...

This is my first attempt at imaging a Planet—Jupiter. It's not a great shot, but it is at least recognizable with three of its four moons. 300% magnified

Congratulations to Clovishound!!!

Well, I think you misunderstood my stating of "fix the focusing point." What I meant was to lock the focus. AW, time to experiment again.

After you manually focus with your eyes (adjust the focus ring), if you set BBF-only, pressing BB will fix the focusing point. If you set SBF & BBF, (I wonder) how you can fix the focusing point because every time you press SB, it will refresh the focusing (make a new focusing). I had default...

"Switch off AF" ??? -- I am on MF when shooting Astro. "My focus process is to pick a bright star, zoom the display in as far as it goes and manually adjust until the star is as tight of a point as can be. That is infinity focus. Then aim on target, hands off the focus ring." -- and then how...

Hey Skv, Rich people always sound off like that. 🚗

Thank you, Woody. (y)

Thanks for the heads-up on the fogging issue, BF. You remind me to think back on the situation. It did get cold and damp when I shot the images. I have not considered this issue, only the settings and operating were on my review list. Just before this trial, I set up shooting banks (both menu...

Ok, I tried again. Still failed (lost focus on stars) with three dozen lights except one. This one looks pretty much the same as the last try except there is strong evidence that makes certain what I had caught is actually the Cygnus constellation (with very little detail though). Compared to...
