O wait solar eclipses

You could photograph the Sun and the Earth. Maybe Venus, Saturn and Jupiter. All are part of the Milky Way and all can be seen during the day, depending on the conditions.

Do you mean like an RX100 or RX10? Neither have the ability to remove the lens so that makes it less optimal for hooking to a telescope. Great cameras though!

yes, the sky appear to rotate because the Earth rotates. You're standing on the rotating Earth so from your reference point, everything else appears to spin.

Yes, that particular shot was with a motorized slider.

Because of the lack of rectilinear distortion, the fisheye has a sharper image overall. It doesn't stretch the extreme corners like a "normal" rectilinear lens does.

@@LonelySpeck thanks for the feedback, do you need to De- fisheye" your image ? Thanks,

@@dannyli9424 I did not de-fish anything in this video review but I do utilize de-fishing as a tool for certain shots. I'm not a huge fan curved horizons in most cases. I do not usually do a full de-fish and only focus straightening horizons

@@LonelySpeck Thanks again for you feedback Ian, very helpful, please keep on doing this kind of real life review, that makes your channel stand out of other " reviewer" who mostly just do test charts. Got another question not related to this lens if you don't mind, I am shooting with a pair of Astro Modified Sony, and wondering how you handle the White balance in the field, do you prefer to set a fixed number ( in Kelvin) or you leave it in auto, I normally set it at 3000 Kelvin this way all my shots are consistent, but then I still have to do quite a bit of work in post, just wondering if you have any suggestion or any video specifically on " How to set you WB when shooting Milky Way with Astro modified camera".

@@dannyli9424 on my astro modified body I set a custom WB with a grey card in daylight. Raws usually look quite orange out of camera. Really, any non-auto setting for WB is fine as long as you're shooting raw.

The biggest advantage of course is the resolution. 60MP of the fpL made a huge difference over the 24MP of the fp when it came to shooting Andromeda. If you were to use one for cinematography or rely on AF for your work outside of astro, the fpL also has better phase detection autofocus. The extra resolution also makes it possible to use the crop function to dramatically zoom digitally while keeping 4k resolution output.

@@LonelySpeckcool, TY.

The angle of the sun is less steep at the top of that photo. Essentially, "top" of the moon in that pic is at high noon of the lunar day so everything is evenly illuminated which makes everything appear much lower contrast and thus lower in detail. The best contrast is always at the transition between the illuminated part and the shadowed part of the moon (the terminator line, or twilight zone) so that's where you always see the most detail in moon shots.

@@LonelySpeck make a lot of sense, thank you man.

100% Aliens.

No, just stock.
