starting Astro Photography

[lazzy187]

I want to get into Astrology Photography but I don't know a thing about it does anyone know any equipment for beginners? I have a canon 20D.

Which star sign would you particularly like to photograph? Dont know too much about it either but would suggest you try an Infra Red Filter. :-)

If you meant to ask about Astronomy rather than Astrology then I suggest you read through the first couple of pages of this section and come back with more specific questions (I would link you to a couple of threads but there are several)

As Chris says, a difficult question to answer really. Astrophotography can be done with a basic camera and lens setup, to a multi-thousand-pound arrangement with telescopes, tracking mounts, and all sorts of gadgets and software. It depends what you want to take pictures of really.

What lenses have you got with your 20D?
