This time i set up my old dslr and a tripod for the shooting, and i shot 70 30s frames. It seems like there’s a problem with sharpness, but im not sure if its because i lack a star tracker, the lens was slightly out of focus, or because of atmospheric wobble.
Here’s some behind the scene images:
The camera is a nikon D5100, a low/midrange camera from almost 14 yeas ago mounted to a cheap tripod.
The white box on top of said camera is the battery which i made from 2 old powerbanks because im a cheapass and couldnt be asked to buy a proper one :)
I saw the nothern lights too!
Does the stacking software handle alignment as the earth rotates? If so, that’s pretty cool. I’m tempted to take a stab at this if that’s the case.
Yup deep sky stacker tracks the stars so you don’t need a physical star tracker. Give it a shot, and post it here :)
