300mm M44

 

Date:            April 2, 2000

Location:      NCO "Wilderness" site - Boon Michigan

Equipment:  Canon F-1 with a Sigma 300mm f4 APO lens, G11, Taurus Tracker III, ST4

Conditions:   6 of 10 Transparency    

Film:             Fuji NHG II 800               

Exposure:     30 minutes       

Comments:   I like the more "condensed" look of these large clusters taken with a telephoto lens instead of a longer focal length telescope.  This is the first use of this Fuji Film and it seems to be nice - but a shot with nebulosity will be needed to make a real evaluation.
