Still possible to get surface details...I could do with some good seeing!! :mad2:

Not a nice shot but the best I can do under the circumstances.

I just used the 2X barlow no extension tube, resampled in registax 1.5X 300 out of 2000 frames stacked.

Refractor & toucam.

You'll never know unless you try. It can look totally worthless thru the eyepiece but more often than not I've been pleasantly suprised when I shoot it anyway & see the final image. I was expecting zero detail too but considering my seeing at the time I'm happy with this.

I reckon Asi's got the right idea, go for it now because it won't be as good as it is right now for almost 2 more years !!!:sad:
