Book Reviews of Digital Astrophotography: A Guide to Capturing the Cosmos
Book Review: "Digital Astrography": balanced, clear, but slightly too shallow
Summary: 3 Stars
"Digital astrophotography" presents a reasonable, clear and succint overview of the various options one has for digitally capturing the night sky. The author is well-balanced, and presents the pros and cons of several options, including webcams, DSLR and digital cameras. In that aspect I found the book quite informative.
However, after having decided that I would be aiming for a digital camera, I discovered that making a choice in that (already bewilderingly wide) field did not become easier after reading the book, since the variety between different digital cameras was not discussed in sufficient detail for me. Now, to be fair, the book aims to allow making the first, general choice in a proper manner, and succeeds in that goal - however, I probably would have liked another 10-20 pages per technique that discuss variations thereof in more detail.
