DIY Dazzy

[Dazzyt66]

So, now I've got a scope (150p) I decided to try and capture some of the stuff I'm seeing. I modded a PS3 eye and after a couple of attempts (and finally the help of a Horlicks lid) I'm off n running...

First prototype

Then a Horlicks lid cam

Then my first attempts with the 150p (in cloud this am)

Still needs some practice methinks.... [emoji3]

That fast food/burger bar outlet slogan sprang to mind... (see below).

 "I'm Lovin' It!"

Interesting way of capturing images, did you pick it up second hand?

I already had it but kids are grown up so no need for 'book of spells' anymore. Basically siliconed the board from the cam into the lid - mainly cos the original body looked rubbish when modded - so I thought 'why not' [emoji3]

Thanks, that's really encouraging. I think better skies will help as well as mastering registax... [emoji3]

Ps3 cam is pretty decent for the price, the picture of Jupiter in my avatar was taken with it on my 127 mak. With peltier cooling it should make a decent guide can too, mine certainly helps with noise.
