introducing the astroscopic labs

This site is dedicated to amateur astronomy and astro photography with CCD and CMOS ( digital astrophotography ) as well as film cameras.

No matter if you are interested in binoculars or telescopes, visual observing or astro photography I am sure you will find useful articles and reviews here. A growing number of photographers are contributing their pictures to this site. The wide range of different equipment they have used can help you to optimize what you will buy. From digital camera to dedicated astro CCD camera or WebCam. From reflector to refractor telescopes and everything in between. Just use our unique search tool of this site and you will find all the photos taken with them! Also each photo will have a cross-reference so that you can easily find more photos of the same camera, telescope or photographer!

Special thanks to Martin Mutti, Robert C. Mills, Nicola Montecchiari, Hans-Ullrich Heller, Miguel Angel Garcia, for recently contributing photos, articles or reviews to the astroscopic labs.
