Wah...tahniah berjaya merakam objek yang malap ini.

Masa ambil gambar memang tak nampak. Tapi hasilnya meletup!

Using just a 200mm f/2.8 lens somemore!!  impressive.

Some notable achievements, I can like spot stars down to magnitude 14.5 !

Wonder if my old 300D can do the same... or is it time to upgrade? 

[redzuan]

Kalau un-modded camera mcm mana? sure kene expose jauh lebih lama drpd yang digunakan masa ambil gambar ni.

Mungkin masa untuk upgrade dan mod kamera pada masa yang sama...

Tenkiu.

harga Canon 450D yang baru berpatutan superceeded by 500D. Bedza yang ketara hanya tambahan video mode.

jika terpakai lagi baik.

Lagi pun senang Focus guna live view.

saya tahu dimana bolih modify di Malaysia dengan harga yang baik.

cheers

Beberapa minggu yang lalu, saya ada buat bandingan kamera saya 450d dengan kamera Mahruz 450d juga. Kamera saya mod tapi dia punya tidak.

Secara kasar, kamera mod beberapa kali lebih sensitif. Warna merah juga menyerlah. Secara amnya, memang perlu dapatkan kamera yang mod.

Tetapi, kamera yang tak mod masih boleh dipakai terutamanya untuk objek yang bukannya jenis nebula emission. (warna merah) Objek yang boleh diambil dengan kamera yang bukan mod ialah seperti gugusan bintang seperti M45, galaksi, bulan, planet dan wide field.

Nikon fan here but no disputing the facts. And here is an evidence caught when i was in LNO last week. But this is also due to my weakness in post-processing. Actual images were taken by the D3 in RAW and later processed in DSS. Slight high alt thin clouds during imaging.
More trying to keep the overexposed parts leveled with the outsides.




Long exposures (narrow-field) is definitely Canon's forte. Want to try it in DQ this CNY!

your sky has no green and the R and B is equal.

My preference for a "black sky" is R:G:B at 30:30:40

lots of details in the picture.

play2 with the RGB values and saturation and

Hebat betul Mr Mymoon proses. Boleh tunjuk? Kene berguru ni.

Kalau dapat contoh tutorial site yang easy to understand pun membantu. Masih zero dalam bidang PP ni. saya baca2 pun masih kabur dan memerlukan masa untuk godek2. Kerajaan kurang duit utk tahun ni. So training pun dijangkakan kurang.

Mungkin time2 CNY ni?

[ahpeace]

I will be more than happy to share what little I know.

we will have to take learning the recitation of Koran approach where the student read first then the teacher will correct his recitation and then the students recites again ad naseum until he khatam certified by the teacher.

so as a start you will need a laptop with the relevant programs installed and be familiar with the programs.

then like saudara Shah says you will need some data to work on to play2 with the programs. For starters use the images you have acquired in gopeng, frasers and langkawi.

then goto here

followed by here

selamat mencuba.
 
a steep learning curve with an equally steep easy to forget gradient
