I captured a 10 minute movie of Mercury's passage across the Solar disk. I used a 2,5x powermate on my C9.25.

As all of you can see my optical train is dirty, my tracking is dubious and the seeing is what it usually is.....

I used my dbk21 colorcam and the ic capture program and saved every 50th frame. I hope you like this "blockbuster" :)

Also attached are two images at f25 and f10. Colorized in pixinsight.....

Thank you for comments. Have added an image at f10. I guess sometimes high magnification does not produce the most exiting results :)
