June 17 First light with ASI120mm cam/ LS60THa

[Tyson M]

Hello all, I finally remember to install the drivers for my new mono cam yesterday. It is so much easier than the color 224MC.

 

I got a good run of imaging in, both with Ha with the Lunt and the Equinox 80 with white light. 

 

I got some close up shots of proms as well, with the 2x and 3x barlow, and some close ups of the spots themselves with the umbra and penumbra in white light with the 5x powermate.

 

I have to experiment with the processing on those because I have never done them before. So those are to follow.

 

These full disk are my best yet. I am very happy with the set up, everything working like it should. The Earth at the bottom of the first image is to scale, measured and resized with GIMP

Cracking disks! Looks like the mono cam was a good investment.

An excellent 1st light, plenty of detail visible there.
