Very informative
I bought the Kindle version of this book, mainly because we’re downsizing. I would have preferred a physical copy, but it is not really practical for us. In any event, the information presented in this book is invaluable. Even though I have a reasonable amount of experience with astrophotography I have learned a great deal from this book. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in this subject, experienced or not.
