First stacked astrofoto
Orion belt and nebula

Which child, in some point of its life, did not want to take a closer look at the planets, stars, galaxies, … in the sky?! At least I did and finally, after taking some pictures of the full moon lately with a telephoto lens I remembered those wishes and bought myself a telescope. Nevertheless, I do not only want to look at the sky but also take beautiful photos, now. So I started my search for a beginner-telescope with the ability to attach my digital mirror less camera (DSLM). Although a telescope is defined by its construction and two numbers and the two numbers of the eyepiece, it took a while to understand all the relevant parameters that could be calculated from those four numbers. So here I write about my way, how I found one.

Lately I was a bit disappointed by the results and I looked up the internet for alternatives. On Focus Stacking Macro Photos by Pat David I found a pretty easy and description. You need your pictures with varying focus (here shown 3 out of 30 I took). Ideally take them with a tripod and remote control.
