Am I safe in assuming that different electronics will stop working at different levels of remaining energy storage in a battery? Assuming a person has many batteries with a little juice left, but not enough to work most electronics can it be transfered efficiently to rechargeable batteries with...
Hypothetically has anyone ever created a lens that has a wider angle with a telephoto fused in the middle to help find objects in periphery, and align them in center after finding them for scoping purposes?
Thanks for the video. I don't think either of these had a scope though. Aligning seems to be the bigger issue for me. I saw the knob near the pad but didn't realized it helped to rotate the camera since I was focused on polar aligning before attaching my camera. In retrospect I should align...
No I don't. I can possibly get the scope facing polaris, but even if the camera can pivot a little it is either facing north or pointing towards the ground at roughly 40 degrees.
Looks like camera would need to also face north like in your diagram. Otherwise in the other direction facing roughly 45 degrees towards the ground.
This image from manual seems to show some cylinder on top of rotating arm with a ball joint that a camera is attached to. I don't seem to have...
Yes but camera would also be facing north? Sun and moon would be more in the middle of the sky as well as most of the galaxy? I was going to try tracking the moon first since it is closer and I can see its edge if it starts to drift over time in relation to tracking.
In the cover diagram it looks like the camera is pointed in same northern direction as the scope that sees north star. I want to look away and a bit up to see most of the sky.
I bought the Star Adventurer 2i and could use some help aligning it. I live in the northern hemisphere. I can find polaris using a free AR star finder app, but can't see it in the sky nor the dipper. Possibly too close to nearest city. Also cloudy kind of a lot in the northern sky.
I would like...
I was using manual but largely kept aperture pretty wide open I think. I actually don't remember. With a longer expose in like 6 seconds or longer range I imagine I might of got up to F/8. I would need to inspect the files to be sure though.
I have used zoom to manually adjust focus for distant objects, but as far as long exposures I'm not sure the view screen will give me an accurate idea of what I'll end up with. I took many photos with slight changes. I have exposure stacked to increase dynamic range, but honestly I don't care as...
How would an image look differently lets say during the daytime of nonilluminated things with appropriate exposers if it's just a color image versus 3 B&W photos using 3 filters and combined as channels afterwards? Would they look all that different?
It is a Canon Rebel so it's full color. I don't know quite what you mean as Christmas lights typically aren't on during the day so I can't say how well they could be seen during daylight. I guess I just want the lights to appear a certain size of light source, but don't want to blow out the...
