My first picture of Jupiter.

[Mr Moff]

Ok so last night for the first time I attached my Hyperion zoom to my DSLR using the T ring.

This is just a single shot at the 8mm setting on the zoom and it came out ok.

Not too bad a view using the Hyperion zoom for this purpose.

Good shot Danny, just ordered the T ring myslef to connect my Canon to the Hyperion, will be interesting

Great first attempt well done stick at it

Nice start Danny

Could be improved with an RGB align, and perhaps more scale if possible.

[JamesF]

Indeed. A good first attempt.

Thanks guys.

Clayton what's an rgb align? I'm always in need of any hints and tips.

[JamesF]

In the wavelets section of Registax (assuming you're using it) there's an "RGB align" button to the right of the main display window. Because of atmospheric diffraction the red and blue ends of the spectrum can be shifted away from each other in the image. That filter attempts to estimate the amount of shift and move the colours back to where they ought to be.

The red fringe on the top right of your image and the blue fringe to the bottom left should reduce or even disappear if you do that.

Thanks James,unfortunately all I have is an iPad so I can't do anything like that.

I'm hoping to pickup a laptop and an ED80 around Christmas though to start learning about imaging.

I knew those hippyPad things were useless

This was a RGB align with CS3 (Photoshop)
