註釋"Thinking about joining the CCD revolution? CCDs are without a doubt the most powerful imaging tool yet to come to astronomy. As with any powerful tool, how you go about choosing and using a CCD can make a big difference in the quality of your results and ultimately, your personal satisfaction. In this book, you can explore CCD hardware and procedures before making a major investment in equipment. This is a practical, 'nuts and bolts' kind of book, specifically designed to help you decide if CCDs are for you. If the answer is 'yes' it goes on to explain how to plan and execute successful imaging sessions right from the beginning. The author, Richard Berry, has first-hand experience with CCDs and he knows what works and since he has been a professional astronomy writer for nearly 20 years he knows how to write clearly about such things. He also includes a copy of his QuikPIX image calibrating software. This program automates the important but repetitive tasks like flat-fielding and dark-correcting your images. QuikPIX alone is well worth the cost of the book! QuikPIX is fully capable of calibrating the images from SBIG's ST-4 and SpectraSource's Lynxx, two popular CCD camera in widespread use. Along with the software Richard includes a diskette with CCD images so you can use the techniques described and illustrated in this book even without a purchasing a CCD"--Back cover.
