Equipment: SW Skymax 150 (f12) at prime focus. The telescope was mounted on an EQ5 pro. Camera: Canon 550D in 640x480 movie crop mode set at 1/1000s exposure ISO400, the frame rate was 60fps.
The total movie duration was about 5 minutes (the weather was cloudless!). Decompressing .mov files was done with Pipp while frame stacking and processing was done with RegiStax 6.
Some first comments: The mount was tracking badly but did improve after some fiddling with the PA axis. I tried my best to properly focus but turbulence makes this quite difficult. The image has a slight red tint, I may modify it to equalise the RGB channels.
