Recenzii
“Astrophotography is Easy! Basics for Beginners … a book for budding astro-imagers that avoids overly technical jargon in favour of a casual, reader-friendly guide. The tome contains practical advice on photographing everything in the sky from the Sun, Moon, and planets to nebulae, star clusters, and distant galaxies, as well as the best techniques to record each one.” (Sky and Telescope Magazine, February, 2021)
“True to its title, this comprehensive how-to book tries to cover everything a novice astrophotographer needs to know: cameras, lenses, and telescopes; imaging methods, mountings, and software; and techniques and tips for capturing such celestial objects and events as the Sun, Moon, stars, eclipses, and auroras. Gregory Redfern draws on his more than four decades of experience as an astrophotographer to provide key guidance to even the most rank amateur and launch them on a lifetime of celestial exploration.” (Physics Today, Vol. 73 (11), 2020)

There are many books covering different facets of astrophotography, but few of them contain all the necessary steps for beginners in one accessible place. Astrophotography is Easy! fills that void, serving as a guide to anybody interested in the subject but starting totally from scratch. Assuming no prior experience, the author runs through the basics for how to take astrophotos using just a camera—including cell phones and tablets—as well as a telescope and more sophisticated equipment.
The book includes proven techniques, checklists, safety guidelines, troubleshooting tips, and more. Each chapter builds upon the last, allowing readers to master basic techniques before moving on to more challenging material. Also included is a comprehensive list of additional books and resources on a variety of topics so readers can continue expanding their skills.
