Abstract NoteUsing just a regular digital camera along with an amateur astronomical telescope, anyone can produce spectacular photographs of the Moon, as well as surprisingly good images of major planets. Purpose-made astronomical CCD cameras are still very expensive, but technology has now progressed so that digital cameras ??? the kind you use for everyday photos ??? are more than capable of being used for astronomy. Tony Buick has written this illustrated step-by-step manual for anyone who has a telescope (of any size) and a digital camera. Look inside at the beautiful color images he has produced ??? you could do the same. Much more than a manual of techniques and examples, this book also provides a concise photographic atlas of the whole of the nearside of the Moon ??? with every image made using a standard digital camera ??? describing important lunar features, including the sites of manned and robotic landings
