Panasonic SD9 mounted to meade etx70 autostar telescope camera jod. Amazing 1080p telephoto spy
I recently bought a panasonic sd9 high definition 1920x1080p camcorder, and decided to hook it up to one of my telescopes and see how well it worked for observing the sun with a solar filter. Digital Technology is an absolutley phenomenal companion to astronomy. This thing can also read the liscense plate of a parked car from several miles distance. With the proper software, this can track faces, as well as planetary objects.
