Advanced Imaging Conference Extended Legacy The Advanced Imaging Conference was established in 2003 to gather create and disseminate information on how to produce astro images of the highest quality while helping to grow the size of the global astroimaging community. We have also strived to give amateur astrophotographers the opportunity to make legitimate contributions to the professional scientific community and to increase the general publics awareness and appreciation of the wonderful images produced by amateur astrophotographers and their equipment. Having presented highly successful conferences for twenty years we have provided several thousand amateur astrophotographers the opportunity for personal facetoface connection with both comrades who share their passion for the hobby and the equipment and services providers that make our hobby possible. Seminars from worldclass astroimagers have allowed our attendees to expand their knowledge and skills to maximize their success imaging the skies.
