ASTRO: DSLR photography - Helix.jpg (0/1)

From Blue Knob, PA. 15 September 2007. Taken with an NP-101 at F/5.4.
Stack of one10 minute and one 20 minute exposure taken with a Hutech
modified Canon 350D at 400ASA.

Stacking several 20 minute shots should smooth it out considerably.
Digital cameras need a lot more time on an object than cooled CCD's but
certainly can do the job. Not long ago I'd have considered this object
out of reach of such a camera. Where will we be in a few more years?
