I have the original 2007 version of the CD, it is a gold mine of information, however some of the links were no longer accessible. The updated version's links all work and hence are current. There are many very useful updates particularly when you consider the influx of new and improved Astro imaging hardware and software.
Book On CD: "A Guide to Astrophotography with Digital SLR Cameras On CD" is a practical guide to astrophotography with digital single lens reflex (DSLR) cameras. It explains how digital cameras work and everything you need to know about how to take astrophotos with them. It also tells you how to process the images after you have shot them, with step-by-step directions that will produce beautiful results.
With this book you will discover how easy it is to shoot the Sun, Moon, stars, nebulae, galaxies and other celestial objects. Use your DSLR camera to shoot through your telescope. Determine the correct exposure and ISO to use for your astrophotos. Focus your camera for razor-sharp images. Take short exposures of deep-sky objects and combine them into a longer exposure. Shoot raw format images and improve them with support frames for calibration. Perform brightness, contrast and color correction. Correct uneven illumination and vignetting.
More than 100 Minutes of video tutorials with step-by-step instructions for complete image processing and enhancement of both JPEG and Raw images are included on the CD-ROM. The original image files used in the tutorials are also included for you to practice with. Low-noise DSLR cameras have opened up an exciting new world of digital astrophotography. These cameras are capable of taking remarkably beautiful images of celestial objects.
