Viewing by eye versus astrophotography
I know this question is almost meaningless ... but perhaps not completely.
When it comes to "seeing" detail, what improvement can you get by photography over the human eye? The human eye is presumably better at optical separation, but CCDs for minimum magnitude. For example, I have heard that you can start seeing the spiral structure of galaxies at about a 8 - 10" telescope aperture; if you are doing astrophotography can this be seen with a lower aperture scope? |
