ISS with 600D video
Hi all
The ISS made a very good flyover Newcastle today, almost right overhead. Used the 10 inch scope and 600D camera. seeing wasnt that good. Used full res. video mode so only middle third of sensor used, so it was hard to keep it in view moving scope by hand. Here it is when nearly overhead.

Thanks all.
My goodness it was bright! Even low in the SW it was so bright andeven the finderscope showed some size to it. By time it was overhead it was whizzing along so fast, was a real battle to keep up.
