Great image! After imaging the ISS for the first time last night I can really appreciate what a tough target it is. What camera did you use?

I used my Canon 70D. Its 7fps and roughly 30'x20' field of view on the EdgeHD 925 so gives a good chance that there'll be 3 or 4 usable shots each pass. I also try to get the ISS tracking diagonally also to maximise the chance of usable shots.
