First Video

Just mentioning that the first Abbott Astronomy video has been posted onto Youtube:

A direct link to the video to playback in HD is HERE

This is one of the trial videos that I've made to test out various settings and ideas.

The camera used is a Canon EOS 400d and it is linked to an automatic shutter trigger (more detailes of my method and equipment will be uploaded later).

The clip is only 15 seconds long, and from about 10 seconds onwards, the moon starts flooding out the picture. At 0.05 the streak of light (going diagonally top right to bottom left) I've identified and believe is the ISS.

General Description: This is one of the first time lapse videos I've made, a small trailer for what's to come.

Camera Info: Canon EOS 400d, 30 sec interval, No Flash auto exposure, 28mm
