Greetings,
I am an avid amateur photographer in Singapore (latitude 1 degree, highly light populated) looking to get into astrophotography, particularly interested in shooting emission nebulas with narrowband filters. SHO Hubble palette nebulous images just blown my mind.Saw lots of amazing Astro images here. Did lots of reading and watch lots of YouTube recently. Came up with the following list of equipment to get my feet wet, but unsure if I am on the right track before I pull the trigger. Hopefully someone here can give me some pointers if I am on the right track, given my interest is in photographing emissions nebula, less in planetary and small galaxy. Also the consideration of Low latitude (1 degree) and city state light pollution.
Equipment :
Explorer Scientific ED102 APO Triplet f/7 714mm
Celestron Advances Vx Low Latitude Modified EQ Mount
ZWO ASI1600MM Pro mon
oZWO Electronic Filter Wheel
ZWO 1.25” Filters 7nm Ha, SIII, OII
Astronomia 50mm Guide Scope
ZWO ASI120MM mini Guide camera
Hotech 2” SCA Field Flattener
AstroZap Astrocap EXT-105 Batinov Focus Mask
Software:
Sequence Generator Pro / Astrophotographer Tool
PHD2
DeepSkyStacker
Thanks. Clear Sky!
