Re: (meteorobs) C/1999 T1 McNaught-Hartley and others
Hi Anthony, Hi all !
I got some photos of 1999 T1, but weather was very poor in january .
The lastest photo are from late december with a 80 mm FD5 refractor.
400 iso, 5 to 8 minutes exposure in a very dark sky, showing the coma
and a V shape tail less than one degree long (maybe 45'). The picture
are quiet grainy and I think you should take 400 iso instead of 800
iso ...
Clear sky !

Folks,
I am looking for any very recent photos of the four comets
(C/1999 T1 McNaught-Hartley, C/2000 W1 Utsunomiya-Jones, 41P
Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak and 73P Schwassmann-Wachmann 3) which are
currently making rounds in the northern hemisphere a few hours before
dawn.
Skies may/should be clear this weekend and I would like to
tackle
some 5-10 minute exposures of these visitors using Fuji ASA 800 speed
film.
Many thanks in advance.
Anthony.
