[Aavso-photometry] New to photometry

[Iakovos Marios Strikis]

Hello all 
 
 
 
My name is Iakovos & I live in Athens Greece.... I am 25 years old & I just got a CCD (Atic IC model mono.) with the Schuler V filter for photometry... I have a small Eq. 3-2 go-to mount (not the best thing to have) and some telephoto lens (58mm-135mm & 200mm) of my old Zenit film camera. I want to start doing some photometry on bright & fast stars (with a period of 4 to 10 hours & mag. 5 to 8) so when I get a better mount with a small refractor to do some more difficult objects (but I will have some experience).... 
 
 
 
I would like to ask how is the procedure of taking images and have not scattered data on the photometry plots (I did some first experiments on the i-Boo {44 Boo} and I can recognize a curve but the data I have are not so good)... My camera is not linear & also has an Anti-Blooming system ... Also the temperature of the ccd is -20 celsius from the enviroment...
 
 
 
In the next few hours I will post a graph of the 44 Boo in my web page (done with the MaxIm DL) so to see what I mean for the scatter of my data...
 
 
 
I will be glad if you could really help me with my first photometry steps...
 
Clear Sky to all
