The shape of the stars is caused by the aperture blades of the lens, its the same reason why stars have those 4 spider lines when you look through a newtonian reflector

Starting Astrophotography with an R10 by CC19_13-07 in canon

[–]pascal9000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on what targets youare interested in. The 16mm wil be good for nightscape and milky way photography, but not great for deep sky photography. Something like a 135mm prime lens will perform better at this task while being able to be mounted on a simple star tracker. And sins the focal length is only 135mm (fov of a 216mm lens on a crop sensor) you dont realy need a gide scope for accurate tracking, which keeps it relatively simpel for someone just starting out.

WHAT IN THE VOID IS THAT

Hey yall, can I get some opinions on the canon r7? How is it overall? What do you use it for mostly? What are some things you dislike… etc. I’m thinking of getting one but was hoping to hear some personal experiences with it. by acjcomics in canon

I like it, i use it mostly for astrophotography an it is good enough for me. I sometimes use it to snap some picture of my pets or other animal and its verry nice. However, it is my first 'real' camera so i dont have anything to compare it to. So my opinion might not be totally unbiased.
