Digital Astrophotography

Canon EOS 400D

I recently bought a Canon EOS400D, SLR Digital Camera. It's called Canon EOSKissDigtalX over here in Japan. This body is very light and compact. Also it has very low noise. I use it for taking picture of Star Trails and landscape. Here is a first shot, Star Trails of Orion, with this camera.

The EOS400D has a ten megapixels CMOS sensor, nine-point AF sensor, a new dust removal system which includes anti-static suface coatings, low-pass filter vibration and software based dust patter removal. The monitar of EOS400D is larger than EOS300D. It is 2.5" monitor.
