The moon - Mizar 900 Telescope

[Patrick Tresch]

Hello,

Here a test I did with the Mizar 900 telescope shooting the moon with the Weapon Magnesium at 6k.

The optical quality is so poor that I would have probably obtained better results with a A7s2 shooting fullframe in 4k (and pushed the iso to 6400) than shooting 6k on a S35mm sensor.

But even so I find it interesting.

See you.

Patrick

Another Moon shot from yesterday night.

Tokina zoom 150-600 @ 600mm, 2.5k crop (from the 6k Dragon LLO)

I'm very lucky ;-)

Great timing on those planes!

Well to be fair... I've done some edit to shorten the appearance of the second plane. The second one came effectively 10 sec later... ;-)

Great luck! What a spectacular shot.

Patrick,

How did you mount your camera to the telescope?

Patrick,

I stabilized the telescope on the camera tripod with a magic arm and clamps. (This is only for the 1rst moon shot)

When I click the link it takes me to a sign up to Vimeo pro page... can't see the video?

Copy paste the link it should work.

I have the same problem. Vimeo updated their software and broke the ability to link to a video. It's possible to access the video directly from the internet but not from a link. Vimeo has had this problem previously -- not quite the pro service they intended.

If you want that video to go viral, go post it on a chemtrail conspiracy forum. They'll love it.

Two similar airliners at roughly the same height.. one leaves particulate matter in the atmosphere... the other, just exhaust vapor..

Nice videos. I've been wanting to film the moon for awhile, and am just now researching the equipment necessary to do so. Keep em coming.
