ok here is my attempt at saturn from lastnight. It wasn't in the best position, but this is no doubt my best. Considering the equipment I was using I am bloody happy with it.

Details:
Video Camera (Sony TR317E) hand held to a 25mm Eyepiece through an 8" F/7 dob hand guided. 830 something frames in registax.

Talk about rough as guts photography.

Thats not bad given the equipment. Pretty decent shot. Keep them coming.

Let me second that, a very good shot, regardless of the equipment. Give up now. No, better still, attach it properly, and tackle Jupiter.

You certainly must like a challenge Andrew. :)

Ditto to both the above comments. From what I've learnt over the past couple of months steep learning curve of planetary imaging, that's a really great shot working with the equipment your using. Keep up the good work.
