Re: (meteorobs) Perseid Meteors with HandyCam
Malcolm:
No I haven't noticed any meteors. This kind of camera might only be
useful for bright fireballs. The advantage is that I could set up and just
let it run while I observe variables or meteors. I do not have a lens, just
use a 1 1/4" adapter with the scopes. I will need a fast lens that can cover
the mirror, I guess. The camera, adapters, power cord and cables were about
$150. The inverter to power all this from the car battery was about $100.
The other stuff I had.
Clear skies,
