Tip for image processing practice.

Hi, Having just bought a new camera I was anxious to try it out on some planetary imaging knowing that the video format was not directly supported by my processing software. I had no videos to practice with, and no planets available for imaging.

Brainwave moment - I got a piece of black card and placed a shirt button on it. I videoed  it, moving it in and out of focus, wobbling, etc. and then did the appropriate conversions and processing.  Worked a treat.
