Cold Camera Photography is a technique used by astrophotographers to avoid noise when taking shots with very long exposures using DSLRs or traditional film cameras. This is achieved through a variety of methods, but the two most popular are using cameras with self-cooling sensors, or running dry ice over the film before using it.[1] By cooling the cameras sensor one can take longer shots without the worry of the chip heating up, thereby reducing thermal, shot and read noise.[2] This technique was invented by Jack B. Netwon.
