Guest Eddy Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 (edited) CG5 Celestron C90 Mak (1250mm) SPC 880 flashed to 900 Tried with barlow but focus seemed tricky, maybe the limit of the scope. Best of 2000 frames at 30fps. I'm pretty happy with it as my first attempt Edited December 5, 2012 by Eddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catman161 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Nice shot eddy. I've read 10fps is the optimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Eddy Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 It seemed to overexpose on 10fps, I guess i'd have to fiddle with other settings, will wait until Jupiter is nice and heigh another night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Ibbo Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 (edited) nice one Eddy Just to add that at 30fps you will be compressing the data 10fps is optimum with 900 I believe alter the exposure time or drop the gain don't use the auto settings get lots of AVI's and have fun stacking and processing them and the higher it is the better so if you are able best time at the moment should be around midnight weather permitting Edited December 5, 2012 by Ibbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyboy1970 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Nice one. Agree with Ibbo (Steve) above 10fps the spc's compress data so you lose data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
