Equatorial mounts are an important tool for astronomers and astrophotographers alike, allowing for precise tracking of celestial objects. These mounts, which come in different designs such as German equatorial mounts (GEMs) and tilted fork mounts, cancel out the apparent movement of stars as the Earth rotates. That’s especially important for long-exposure astrophotography, where any movement […]

In recent years, there has been a significant shift in the way that astrophotographers capture images of the night sky. Previously, most photographers relied on monochrome CCD cameras and a range of filters to produce high-quality images. However, with the advent of high-quality cameras equipped with CMOS sensors, there has been a transition away from […]
