Saturn 840K Redo

I ran the frames through Registax again and went a lot softer on the Wavelets, etc...Hopefully this looks a little better than my first post.

Cheers,

What scope did you use for that? It's lovely!

great stuff, it's really nice that us mere mortals can produce good images with what are in effect web cams. Well done Doug. ( I presume the 840k refers to a toucam)

Nice shooting...It is amazing what a webcam can produce in the right hands.....

Thank you for the kind responses. The scope was a Celestron CPC-1100 @f15. I used a Harry Seibert 1.5x barlow. The exposure time was 1/25 sec. and frame rate was 15 fps. I kept the Gamma very low and saturation about 1/4....gain and brightness were just enough to make out the surface and rings. You don't want the images to be too bright, especially since you will stack hundreds of frames. But, give it enough Gain/Brightness to acquire some detail without burn-out of the disk.

Cheers
