Robert,
Great
as always. I ordered Ron Wodaski's book on CCD. Time to start
learning. Some used ST8s have come up at reasonable costs. That is
my biggest hurdle, the cost of the camera. I don't want to get into CCD
with a small chip. So I will wait until I can get at least an ST8 size
chip. The ST2000 camera looks like it might be the entry level camera for
me if it is priced as SBIG has alluded at less than $4000. I will have
many questions once I start down the CCD trail. Your work with a few
others has really shown me the power of the CCD. My goal is film like
results and I now see that it certainly can be achieved.
One question; I know Tony Hallas mentioned
getting large prints from relatively low resolution CCD images. What pixel
per inch to print size ratio have you found to be acceptable? For
instance, if I have an ST8, how big of a print could I make from that?
Thanks for your contributions.
Jeff
