Anonymous Coward User ID: 16028860 United States 05/14/2012 03:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So what is the total magnification? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16028860 I'm getting a FugiFilm 14M camera with a 30X optical zoom, and I figure I can get something close to that. The total magnification I was using here with the eyepiece was about 400x to 500x. I'm not really sure. Ohhhhh Kaaaaay I guess I won't get anything close then. That is a nice scope you got. |

Isis One User ID: 14343270 United States 05/14/2012 03:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | IT LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING IS ECLIPSING VENUS! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10312953 BETTER STORY THAN YOUR FINGER Angle of the sun hitting surface Ok, I understand how Venus will pass between the earth and the sun June 4-5 but I don't understand this eclipse mode. Could you explain the "angle of the sun hitting surface" idea a bit more. Thanks, and oh, I have a little thread going on Venus too. Spread the word, change the collective conscious......

Anonymous Coward User ID: 16031237 New Zealand 05/14/2012 04:29 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I tried once again to get a focused shot of 'the big bright star' aka Venus/Nibiru/whatever but it seems to be spinning/rolling? Is this right? Should it be? I can focus on the moon easily but can't for the life of me get a good pic of this. This is as good as I could get last night & the moon 2 nights ago Quoting: Just miffed Venus? :Venus?: Moon :full moon 1: Hiya miffed That is a great idea It sure doesn't look anything like the pics of Venus, that market selloff has in his thread tonight Hmmm.. What is this that just miffed photographed? It doesn't look anything like yours |

From that weird picture of venus that the person posted was probably a low and crappy 20x zoom or something. |
