After a long period dedicated to astrophotography on film, I decided to jump into the intriguing world of CCD imaging. I recently purchased a Starlight Xpress SXV-H9 camera, a True Technology manual custom wheel, and a set of Astronomik LRGB + H-Alpha dichroic filters. In addition, I'm testing the new GM2000-FS2 mount produced by the Italian company 10Micron, a mount which is really a piece of art and a great bargain for the price. The picture below shows this new equipment. The purpose of this new page is to share the growing experience in the fascinating field of high-resolution images. Anyway, I will continue to take shots on film, having those a great aesthetical value especially on widefield images.
