![]() ![]() Telescopes for planets, Moon and Sun at high magnifications Let’s see now how to capture different objects and which telescopes are the most suitable for each situation. Deep-sky astrophotography (galaxies, nebulae, star clusters): since these objects have low brightness it’s important to capture the higher amount possible of light and therefore images are captured with long exposure times (several minutes or hours).Planetary astrophotography (planets, Moon, Sun): objects such as planets or a detail of the Moon surface have a small apparent dimension and, therefore, images have to be recorded with high magnification.Astrophotography is in in fact divided into 2 main classes: However, in order to obtain high-quality images, different acquisition techniques are used and telescopes with different characteristics are suggested. It’s possible to use a standard DSLR or mirrorless camera (properly connected to a telescope) to capture the first images of any celestial object. The best telescope may not be the most powerful, but one you will use the most: find out what is the telescope for astrophotography suitable for you. ![]() Because of this, when we have to select the best telescope for our needs we have to choose between a specific-purpose telescope (do we need to photograph the planets or deep-sky objects?) or a more general one. If you’re looking for a high-end premium photographic-style telescope, check out our range of apochromatic systems here.When we use a camera to take a normal picture, we can select the magnification which best suits the object of our image, switching from wide-angle shots (for example 20mm focal length) to higher magnification shots (for example 200mm focal length). This freedom of choice is not possible in astrophotography as, due to telescopes special optical design and the specific characteristics of the objects they are used for, they need a fixed focal length that can be varied with the use of additional accessories but only to some extent.įor example, apart from expensive solutions mostly for professional use, a short focal length telescope, which may be used to photograph deep-sky objects, can hardly be used to capture images of the planets or the moon. Some of the refractors below are on computerised mounts, featuring full GoTo programming and WiFi capabilities, while others are very simple, and completely manual. Refractor designs are great for use both at night to look at the sky, or during the day terrestrially to look at the view off your balcony.
