Episode 26 - Astrophotography Jargon Explained
08/02/24 • 59 min
Sorry for the delay everyone!! Everything that can go wrong, sometimes go wrong! Murphys Law, as they say. You'll have to ignore the part where I mention this is a "YouTube episode", as the greenscreen key was messed up, and I couldn't fix it!!
If I've learned one thing this week, it's to make sure your green screen is evenly lit!!
Welcome back to the ASTROCAST!! This week, a topic that MAY require a 2 parter! Roo takes you through a HUGE number of Astrophotography terms and exactly what they mean! Too often I have seen people ask a question on a beginners forum, only to be answered with multiple jargon words that they probably don't understand!
Even if you are a seasoned AP'er, you can probably learn a LITTLE something today!

I am working on ironing out the kinks of video production, and it's more complicated than I would have thought. I figured it would add 2 hours top to my overall production time, boy was I wrong! But I think with the right changes and planning, i'll be able to start doing a video episode every other week. Thats the plan, stay tuned!
Thanks so much for tuning in, CLEAR SKIES!
