Better seeing this morning especially Saturn steady as a rock here. Thanks for looking!

C9 - 236m x1.5 amplification - Saturn upscale 15% Jupiter 5%.

Wonderful images - Saturn is very sharp given how low it is. Out of curiosity are you using an ADC?

Nice captures Simon. Some great detail. I dont know what gives with the UK weather ? but been high pressure here recently and it was naff. Then all of a sudden its back to the predictable high pressure calm. What ever I will take it. Glad you got out under the seeing. Wonder if Martyn got out with the big scope. If he did it must be something special.

Thanks im not using an adc because i would be grossly over sampling if i did, the adc needs to be placed between the barlow & the camera it would be almost of the chip resolution wise.

Its a shame really because it can tighten up even mono images if set correctly so its stays in the box!

Cheers Neil having good conditions makes a change doesn't it i had a few issues with my hand controller last night which took up a lot of time so only the one reasonable Jupiter run!

Yeah Martyn was out as far as i know so may have some decent data too, i will look forward to viewing it.
