A couple of times a year I like to do some lunar imaging but this is the first time this year
Waited for the 90% waning moon to get up nice and high last night before I started at 11.30pm
8” f5 Bintel newt on an EQ6-R mount
Canon 600D stock
Televue 2 x Powermate
Televue 2.5 x Powermate
Televue 4 x Powermate
Televue 5 x Powermate
Capture software BYEOS Planetary mode
ISO 800
1200 AVI video files at 29.5 fps
Conditions not too favourable with some medium wind around and Jetstream running at 70 to 90knots
Captured some lunar terrain images but the video files were poor quality due to atmospheric instability so salvaged what I could
Video files stacked in Autostakkert 3 and sharpened in Registax 6

Thanks for looking , comments most welcome

Nice work Martin. I was going to do the same last night but it rained and clouded over, then I was just too tired. Might try tonight. I have a 2" big Barlow to try. First time in ages . Like what you have gained
