Since early 2009 I have been working with various Canon Bodies for night photography. I don't work with a Telescope but try to take traditional landscape shots at night with the use of the moon to illuminate both the sky and landscape. Depending on the situation I will most likely stack a series of shots and then work them all together later.
I have read as much as I have been able to find on the new 60Da, and am wondering if my style of shooting will benefit from it? Night skies, some milky way work, but mainly star trail shots. I regret to see the crop factor on the sensor, but I can figure out a lens to use.
It seems that the camera will be a limited run but before I put my name on one, I am trying to get a better handle what to expect. I have looked at the various nebula shots but all of those I am assuming were taken with a telescope tethered to a PC/camera. I am in the field and would not be able to carry all of that.
Any feedback from other night shooters is greatly appreciated.
