After my 2 pane Pano I dropped in the webcam and Ultima barlow and had a go with that. Focusing with the scope on the HEQ5 was much easier....

about 400 of 600 frames

I then had a go at a gentle colour lift (Registax Saturation slider)

The seeing was bouncing around all over the place, so I had a go without the barlow, about 1200 of 1800 frames

And then my power pack died.... no mount movement....

Oh, I forgot to mention, that the webcam had a Baader Contrast Booster on it's nose, I think it's helped, although it took me a moment or 5 to work out why I was having to push the gain up higher than I would normally

Any suggestions on how I can improve on these, what settings to use for the SPC900 ?

Hi John

It's quite interesting to compare this first shot with your first shot of the 5mm Hyperion/450 combination here

There doesn't seem to be too much difference between them.

I guess once you have mastered the web cam and processing, the web cam will be superior.

Yeah, you're right Paul. I think the definition of the 450d made the difference there. Thanks.
