Re: (meteorobs) Re Digimeteorography.



Hi Stuart:

  Digital camera typically had very short exposure time ( not like SLR with B
setting) and suffered from ccd noise at low light long exposure. In theory if
you shoot a couple of seconds exposure  'often'  enough [ plenty of  battery
power and 1 G IBM microdrive]  with a fish-eye lens ( talking more on Nikon
Cookpix 995 series  avialble in June ]  you should be able to capture some
bright meteors during the storm.
