Binning is simple using several photosites (not pixels) to create a larger photosite. In your case if you were to use a 3x3 bin then one pixel (in the image) would cover (3*0.36) 1.08 arcsecs. A 3x3 bin would combine the information of 9 photosites (3 wide x 3 high) into one pixel. The image would be smaller but the "resolution" would be the same.

Try imaging the moon with your setup, you should be able to get some real nice detail. Try different binning. Miguel

Hello coolraiser103, When you say "increasing image resolution" i assume that you mean that you want to see more detail of small scale structures in the final image. If so, the only way that you can do this is to get a bigger telescope.....with a larger aperture. Your telescope is capable of resolving about 1 arcsec, the full width of Saturn and it's rings are only about 37 arcsecs. Here is some information that may help to explain... http://www.astro-imaging.com/Tutorial/Calculations.html Miguel

I would show my eyepiece container but I'm sure that everyone already knows what a plastic shopping bag looks like. I do have each of my two eyepieces in plastic cases. Miguel
