Video astronomy on the gousing video cameras with small telescopes /[electronic resource] :by Joseph Ashley. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2017. - xiii, 205 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - The Patrick Moore practical astronomy series,1431-9756. - Patrick Moore practical astronomy series..

Preface - Chapter 1. Astronomy from a Video Perspective -- Chapter 2. The Anatomy of a Video Camera - Chapter 3. Assembling Your Video Astronomy Kit - Chapter 4. Light Pollution and Filters -- Chapter 5. The Solar System and Video Astronomy - Chapter 6. Deep Space and Video Astronomy - Chapter 7. Imaging the Night Sky Chapter 8. Outreach with Video Telescopes - Chapter 9. Live Video Broadcasting - Chapter 10. Video Astronomy Trends - Glossary - Appendices - Index.

Author Joseph Ashley explains video astronomy's many benefits in this comprehensive reference guide for amateurs. Video astronomy offers a wonderful way to see objects in far greater detail than is possible through an eyepiece, and the ability to use the modern, entry-level video camera to image deep space objects is a wonderful development for urban astronomers in particular, as it helps sidestep the issue of light pollution. The author addresses both the positive attributes of these cameras for deep space imaging as well as the limitations, such as amp glow. The equipment needed for imaging as well as how it is configured is identified with hook-up diagrams and photographs. Imaging techniques are discussed together with image processing (stacking and image enhancement) Video astronomy has evolved to offer great results and great ease of use, and both novices and more experienced amateurs can use this book to find the set-up that works best for them. Flexible and portable, they open up a whole new way of seeing space.
