Cheers for the advice!
Can you show me exactly how you attached the camera?
i have one of those plastic universal adaptors - it works - but you mentioned you do it with a stepdown ring?
(this sounds a bit sturdier to me, as well as easier to get the camer lens centred and square on)
i picked up a GSO 2.5 barlow (very cheap) to play around with.
it worked ok from an exposure perspective....
(i also have another compact that does 1080p and it worked as well)
Only problem now is.....i think saturn is getting too low in the sky
and the seeing is pretty bad (sigh)
can't see the bands, nor the division.....even through my best EP.
ah well....will keep trying while waiting for jupiter
