Thanks Paul. Forgot to check my collimation as the image looks a little fuzzy. Also i think i had the gain a bit too high during capture. Hope to have another go at our next meet and tweak the settings as i know better results are acheivable with my set up.

The seeing seemed particular good on Saturn tonight, I was observing at about 300x magnification at dusk. I've got some AVI's to process but the laptop is playing up.

Really nice mark. Last night seems I have been good for Saturn. Unfortunately was completely cloudy where I live. Apparently goin to be clear tonight so will have a go myself if it is.

Nice images. Good work.


 


I think I need to turn my gain up a bit, I think I'm being too stingy on gain.
