玩 DSLR 的人，通常都意不在普通的拍照，是真正去拍攝！
DSLR (Digital Single Len Reflex) 即傳統單鏡反光相機的數碼版本，簡稱數碼單鏡反光相機

Vixen Large Accessory Plate (LAP) transporting Vixen 70S (70mm, f/6) guidescope, Vixen GA-4 guider, Nikon D70 DSLR with 180mm ED lens, mounted on Losmandy Universal Plate and camera holder, Nikon DR-6 angle finder. Note the Velcro strap anchoring objective end of 180mm, f/2.8 lens.




Any monitor with an RCA phono input plug can be used. A TV is not suitable because the dot pitch is too coarse for accurate focus and display of stars. Don't be confused by terminology like horizontal lines, number of pixels, etc. Only the "Dot Pitch" parameter is of interest, and this number should be under .20 mm for accurate focusing. The black/white security monitors are ideal if one has access to the mains and an enclosure (observatory). My choice for a monitor was the small professional grade Marshall VLCD4-Pro. The key features of this monitor was portablility, 12V operation, .17mm dot pitch, dual video inputs, and multiple image adustments; including the option of a B/W display. This image shows a setup with the monitor attached to the D70 (note: shown are crosshairs of sewing thread taped across the screen for purposes of Video Guiding. See Thomas Dobbins, "Video Astronomy").

Here is a unique and very rare transit of Venus across the face of the Sun on June 8th, 2004.  Unfortunately, clouds came in at daybreak when the transit occured and almost totally obscured the view.  Here are a few pictures of Venus at the very end of the early morning transit.
