(meteorobs) Re: photographing the night sky

You expressed an interest in photographing the night sky. An ordinary SLR
camera with a T setting, plus a sturdy tripod to mount the camera, is all
that is required. Check astronomy magazines for the types of film to use,
whether colour or black & white. The T setting is an important feature as
it allows you to vary the exposure duration, which would be long for
astronomical objects. A wide field of view is best for meteors. I hope you
receive more replies to help you. There are some books on astrophotography
too.
