First ever Jupiter image

[Steve91]

Hi guys

After getting my first scope on Tuesday, last night was the first night out and it was fairly clear, not the best seeing as it was a bit fuzzy but did my best.

This is my first ever pic of Jupiter (and my first ever astro pic)

Took with a modded xbox webcam and registax, processed with Photoshop. Not 100% convinced that it's quite in focus but im not sure if thats just down to the seeing.

Hope you guys can help me out to get it better

Thanks

That's really good, what scope?

You may also want to try putting the video through PIPP first as it will centre the image and also can be used to crop the video so you end up with a nice small video, not requiring the massive one you started with.

Well done.

Its through a Celestron Nexstar 127 SLT. I've never heard of PIPP tbh, ill have a look now

Nice try, I have the same problem of not being sure if Im in focus.

Here's a different image using different settings and processing. Slightly better I think
