HD Camcorder test, viewing through a 12" Dob Telescope using "Prime Focus" method. Camcorder was a Sony XR100E in full HD mode. Using a Wide Angle Lens in Macro Mode. Camcorder was on a tripod.
Method was very rough, but the concept was to see if the Camcorder was anygood at shooting the Moon and in HD. Barlow Lens not fitted, though would have made a huge difference in magnification.
Humidity was a factor too, was near 96%, so it wasn't the best viewing, but still for what it was, it worked out great.
