Imaging Deep Space Objects made easy with Astroberry (Raspberry Pi)

If you're familiar with the ZWO ASI Air and N.I.N.A. then you might enjoy Astroberry.

Astroberry allows you to control your astronomy gear using a Raspberry Pi. Astroberry uses open source software so it's free and it's flexible.

In this video, I go over my simplest Astroberry Setup where I use just a DSLR, Telescope, Computerized Mount, and Raspberry Pi to image galaxies. I've used this set up to image nebulae as well but in the video, I just stay with Galaxies.

I go over how to install Astroberry on a raspberry pi, my recommended configurations, how to connect your hardware, and a simple example of taking pictures of M108, the Surfboard Galaxy.
