A ZWO ASI178MC camera with an all-sky lens was mounted on a static tripod
The camera was mounted in an elevated position so that it would have a
good view of the sky
The camera was set to 30s exposures and Tiff images were captured with AstroDMx Capture for Windows

Image showing a meteor
The constellations of Hydra, Leo, Gemini, Auriga. Perseus, Cassiopeia, Cepheus, Draco, Bootes, Ursa Major, Ursa Minor (with a meteor passing through) are all clearly visible.
Closer view
The exposure and gain settings will have to be optimised, but this setup should capture meteors in meteor showers.
