That is not a bad effort for your first step down the slippery slope. I noticed that the image size was only 320 x 240 when the Neximage can do 640 x 480. You should be able to select 640 x 480 somewhere in your capture software.

Cheers,

i was reading about that and it said recommeded setting it at 320 x 240 what would 640 x 480 do?

[cgarry]

It would give you a greater FOV and 4 times as many pixels in your final image. I never used my SPC900 on anything but the 640 x 480 resolution.

I am not sure why 320 x 240 would be recommended, especially on a target like the moon. Unless it allowed more frames per second to be captured that is.
