Saturn+Jupiter 22/03/05 - first light new cam!

[Comet Hunter]

Finally after about 3 weeks I'm able to image again :cool: First light tonight for my new Toucam. Conditions weren't that good...breeze blowing and also still early in the night (7-8:30 for Saturn and 9:30-11:30 for Jupiter) which resulted in alot of turbulance. Anyway, here's a couple of shots I've quickly processed..

Will take a few weeks to get things sorted out eg. the difference in settings from the old QC...

The one of Jupiter looks terrific Andrew!

Thanks Ken, not sure why that one turned out brown like that while all the others are similar to this one..

Still, not bad for first light - cant wait for some decent seeing to try it with the Barlow though :D

I'd be very happy with any of them. Well done

:2thumbs: Andrew. There'll be no holding you back now. Just wait till the end of June. Saturn, Venus and mercury will be within about half a moon diameter of each other. How's that for a challenge.

Thanks guys, here's another taken at 5fps (60sec), I think this is about 250odd frames stacked..

Really really nice CH, can't wait till you get some better seeing for an increase in image scale with your 3x!

That last one is your best! Tonnes of detail there.
