Getting Started

Tripod-mounted unguided astrophotography is relatively easy to learn, and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Here's what you'll need to get started:

  • 35-mm SLR camera
  • Camera tripod
  • Film
  • Guide Book

Let's take a look at each of these items. Then, we'll do some astrophotography.
