Astronomy Camera Manufacturers
It can sometimes be hard to track down all the manufacturers for a particular type of product. In the case of astronomy camera's there are several tucked away in the big world of the internet that can be hard to find. Here I try to provide a listing of those you should check out. |

Deep Sky Stacking Programs
The question often arrises from the above of what piece of software to use for stacking and processing the resulting images that you take using your camera. Or, also often the case, people don't realise that there is software available to make this easy. So here I am going to list a few options, hopefully making it easier for anyone who finds this page. |

Polar Alignment - the basics
At the time I entered astronomy there was little accurate information regarding polar alignment in the southern hemisphere. I found it frustrating being unable to find an easy to understand accurate method of polar aligning. As a result I wrote this information page, outlining the procedure for polar-alignment in the Southern Hemisphere and giving a brief explanation of the idea behind it. |

Polar Alignment - with a GoTo
Polar Alignment with a GoTo telescope mount can be significantly simpler than methods required when the telescope has no GoTo. This is just a little info on one way you can save time with a GoTo polar alignment. |
