Phobos and Deimos

I thought I'd give 13th magnitude Phobos a go since Mars is well placed and since I finally managed to restored some semblance of Alt/Az control on my Dobsonian.

Canon EOS 600D, HD Video Crop Mode, 1/30sec, 30fps, (ISO102,400 with Magic Lantern firmware), 5x Powermate, 12"SkyWatcher Goto Dobsonian, manually tracked.

Heavy levels and sharpening used and a normally exposed Mars superimposed.

Also attached is an image of Deimos from the other day.

Thanks for looking,

Tom
