Astrophotography for Beginners ft. Nico Carver 

It was so nice to finally meet you in person! Loved seeing how this video came together with all the excellent visual aids!

Great to see you back Helena and to see Nico over here. Intrigued to see what's next...

Excellent interview! Thank you!

guys this is an amazing video! so well put together and so helpful....everything you talk about (being quite fresh to the hobby myself) are things I struggle at times to remember or understand. thank ya 😊

This was awesome! :-D I really enjoyed watching every single second! Can't wait to see what you have planned in the future! Clear skies :-)

Great speak easy interview, loved it! Look forward to see what your future collabs are 🔭✨️📷👍😁

Wow, fantastic video guys. Very informative and especially for anyone starting out you’ve covered all the bases. Very well put together and I’m so glad yous got a lovely dry day in Scotland to film it 😊

That’s how I got started. I just taught a beginning Astrophotography class to 4H students in our local Astronomy outreach at a local college. We all had a lot of fun then went outside to view the night sky with telescopes. I am with the Tacoma Astronomical Society.

Good job girl and nice interview. Platesolving from a screenshot, excellent!

Nice job. You guys make a great team. Thanks for sharing this great information. I’m retired and worked for Zeiss Photo. Every picture NASA took in space or the moon was with a Zeiss lens.

Really good questions and information given Helena! Thank you so much for talking about dslr's.

You’re such a good speaker, Helena. That was a fun vid you and Nico put together!

Mam, i have been seeing your videos from India, I'm a student of M.Sc in physics.

2 of my favorites together, fantastic.

The two of you make a great Astro team! Dr B from Manitoba, Canada 🇨🇦

pure wholesomeness ngl

Great to see you guys get together in person!

I really enjoyed watching and learning from this video. Thank you both! :-)

Excellent, always wondered why you never imaged inside your observatory, hope you get it fixed soon

This was fantastic, great to see you back.

Nice Nico interview Helena! Very informative. - Cheers

Great interview

Enjoyed the video. Thanks guys! :)

Great video. Nice to see you both in the same video.

2 years ago, I got really interested in taking aurora pictures, but I would have to travel far to do that. Then the pandemic came and I never was able to make the trip. This year I've been learning about astrophotography and I want to start with what I currently have.... my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. Every time I've tried to take pictures, clouds popped up, but tomorrow I'm going to a dark sky location for the first time and it says 0% clouds for 2 days. I'm going to try longer exposure pictures (20 - 30 seconds), but I want to try using 1 second exposure pictures and stack them. Once I master using my Smartphone, then I want to move to a Telescope setup with tracker, but it's going to be a lot of money.

This was very helpful. Thanks a lot!

Great to see you two together!! 🙏

excellent!! :)

She's back! ... and how did you get Nico over there?

Nice. Very interesting talk. Greetings from Germany

6:55 The EOS 1100D (unmodded) was also my first astro-camera, but unfortunately, I can't get a Bortle 2 sky anywhere in my vicinity. Bortle 5 is standard here. :-(

Good team!

Genius ^ 2

Very cool that you guys got to meet in Scotland! Question though: What is the site you're using for the screenshots around 9:32 where it projects a FOV over the night sky to help with composition? I feel like I've seen this tool in Nico's videos before too but haven't had luck with google searches or going through his old vids.

Cool...lucky nice day..

Coolio

It almost took you 6 months to post this video..i thinks you should atleast post 1 video a month for your viewers..

So so amazing guys!! Such an awesome video and I can’t wait to see what you guys do in the future! :)
