Hi
After the massive Newcastle storm I finally got to test out the Phillips Toucam I got. about 90 secs of video, 2.8 three element barlow, the Toucam, I downloaded Registax and pretty much put it on automatic then fiddled with the wavelet sliders, then upsampled it by about 2x

10 inch f5.6 newtonian. (Full thickness Pyrex Sutching mirror)

I will have to learn Registax more, some grading round the edges but otherwise Im happy enough with it, the GRS convienently in view too :)
Taken round midnight. No mirror cooling and some noticable thermal distortion (will have to see about fixing that )

cant remember what causes onion rings, but you have them bad. i think its in your capture settings tho.... no doubt one of the gurus will sort ya out.
