Jupiter via 130PDS

[RolandKol]

I know, 130PDS is not the best scope for planetary AP.

But I just wanted to share my beginner's results.

Both taken on 5th and 6 of May 2018, using 130PDS, x3 Barlow and ZWO ASi224MC.

Very nice picture. What barlow were you using ? Did you have to use any extensions for getting the image in focus ? I have a 200pds and having tough time focusing with 3x barlow and asi120mc.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi, l used just the cheapest x3 barlow l managed to find on ebay... No extensions.

And yea, focusing was very challenging... I used bahtinov mask and focused on the star closer to Jupiter and anyway, it was almost a guessing game, thats why l tried to catch Jupiter as early as possible...
