Cookbook ( CB 245 ) Image Gallery
The Cookbook Camera designed by Richard Berry,
Jim Munger and Veiko Kanto was built around a now obsolete camcorder
CCD sensor. Camera construction is outlined in the highly detailed
text The CCD Camera Cookbook available at Wilman-Bell.
Built from readily availblable electronic components this device gave me
literally hundreds of hours of enjoyment under the night skies. Below is
a sampling of my best imagery with this camera . I image exclusively now
with my Genesis CCD Camera however the CB245 from time to time is
utilized as an autoguider -still very much involved with the imaging process!
Unless otherwise noted all images have been acquired
with my CB245 and 10" LX200 SCT.
