In our opinion, the photo you take is only half the picture.

We think that not editing your astro images is almost doing them an injustice, as editing is done to enhance what's already there, rather than changing the image. As 99% of astrophotographers will be shooting in RAW, the raw data captured often looks dull and lifeless straight out of the camera. Some photographers think that editing images is 'cheating', but we disagree. Photo editing software can transform your space photographs into breathtaking pieces of art by boosting colors and bringing out hidden details. Even the best telescopes and best binoculars can't reveal all the subtle colors and patterns that post-shoot editing using photo editing apps can.

But with the help of the best cameras for astrophotography, we can see the much fainter glows of nebulas and galaxies.

When we look up into the night sky with the naked eye, we can make out faint sources of light from distant stars, see the bright light from the moon and possibly, on a clear night, see a nearby planet or two.
