mikeskor Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 The image of Jupiter was taken at 8:00 this evening, April 19, 2016. The image was derived from an AVI taken with a ZWO ASI224MC camera using Sharpcap, C9.25, 2X barlow. Processed with Autostakkert 2, Registax 6 and Photoshop with Topaz Labs Denoise and inFocus. 5200 frames were taken, 30% of those were stacked. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hornedreaper33 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Incredible picture! I can't wait to start taking pictures with my C8. I hope the quality is at least some where near to this. Well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Cowboy Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 (edited) What camera settings are you using Mike? As 5200 frames seems very low for this cam. At f20 you should be getting around 100fps which is 6000 per minute. Edited April 19, 2016 by Space Cowboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grotemobile Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Loads of detail there. Very good. I find my frame rate drops right off , when using a Barlow Stuart. It is a good one as well. I use 2, 80mm extension tubes now on the C8. This gives me a f/l of 2900mm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gain was 212 and exposure at (ms)=0.016873 Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
