Hi,

I've just received my copy, very well packaged. The post just delayed 1.5 weeks (to Mexico). I already bought and read the Planetary Astrophotography book from the same company, so I ordered with confidence. The paper is first class as the quality of the printing work.

Can't wait to read my new book. :bow

Book received, well packaged and all within a week to Ireland.
One 'hic up' arose in the transaction, which Jean-Phillippe dealt with immediately.

Amazing book! Thought at the moment it rised more questions instead of giving short answer for what scope should I pick in my journey in solar world 😅

Like the planetary counterpart, lots of information, photos and whatnot.
Quite heavy on details, not to read in one sitting.

Cheers,

Note after a few months: I've been reading this book quite a bit. From cover to cover once and some parts several times. This book is just so good. Pure reference material. I'm happy that I bought this (and the planetary version, too).

And I am glad that if I feel like teasing my physics Ph D background, there is enough additional material to keep me entertained :)

I got mine because you got me and the fact that this cost as much as an adapter.

Thanks Christian I know you are there to help everyone else when they need it.

After reading it for some months now: I love this book. So many details, hints, ideas and pictures to envy. Such a great work!

Hello, Christian
I read your book and wrote it very well. I want to introduce this book into China and translate it into Chinese. Are you interested? I consulted the chief editor of the publishing house. He is also very interested in this book. Can we discuss it further?

I got the book a month or so ago and started reading it last week. I've gotten to about page 50 (of just under 500) and I'm very impressed. I'm brand new to the hobby and I can see that not only are there answers to questions I've already had, but questions I never even thought of and more questions that I might never even get around to asking because they're far beyond what I will need for my level of commitment to my new hobby.

I expect I will never go so far as to build my own radio solar telescope, but I love that I could do it with this book if I wanted to.
