Does focal length matter? Does aperture matter? And what is some non-random third thing that ties everything together? In this video, I discuss the "Triforce of astrophotography signal!" Or maybe it's the "Triforce of Astrophotography Resolution?" Well, you can decide :)
00:00 Introduction
00:46 The Prelude
01:33 Part I: What is the Astrophotography Triforce?
06:33 Part II: The First Triforce Piece
08:05 Part III A: The Second Triforce Piece
11:28 Part III B: Some Examples
18:26 Part IV: The Third Triforce Piece
21:54 Part V: Using the Whole Triforce
