These are the only 2 I have and were taken 2 years ago with a Canon Compact so just record shots before I got a DSLR!
And doesn't that just prove that it's not the equipment which counts, it's the talent of the person using it.

Some, like Lilly, have SLR talent even with a compact.

Others ( me ) manage to maintain compact talent even with an SLR

I really like number one. Makes me want to climb over the gate and see where the path leads to.

A good question though Mac, we tend to forget that A paper sizes aren't a worldwide standard.
D'you know what, I thought they were

That's sharp!!
How did you focus??

Mine is 100mm, f/10 Refractor.

I know you guys don't do astro photos ( well, I haven't seen any on here ), but I thought I'd share some of the first photos I've taken with my *istDL attached to my telescope.
I'm not overly happy with focus, but by eck it's hard to focus without the split screen.

C&C welcome as always.

I can see why you are taken with it. It is a lovely shot.

My camera refused to work at about 0c last Saturday, but that might be due to the fact that I'd forgotten to put the memory card back in

Seriously, though, I hadn't given a thought to ambient temperature affecting the camera.

I have a key ring that holds a SD card......always have with my front door key, so I know I will always have it on me (need front door key to look my door...so will never forget it)...

On the downside......you need to remember to keep the card in there......just in case...
Now I like that idea!

Peter..Upgrade? Do you have ANY idea how much trouble I had convincing the Mrs I could afford the "previously loved" istDL
