Hi All,

I modified a Logitech 9000 Pro webcam for use for astronomy and got to try it in anger for the first time last night. With high cloud coming in fast I didn't have time to set up the NEQ6 to get videos to stack, so quickly grabbed several images instead while tracking by hand. This webcam will shoot at 1600x1200 so you get a larger image to work with. Webcam fitted to Skymax 180 Pro.

Seems to work OK, just need to grab video for stacking. Even with the image boiling on live view, it seemed to work.

As I say, only 5 frames stacked by hand.

Cheers

Ian
