Ok here is my latest effort, still improving slightly.
This was taken very quickly as the clouds rushed past. I got about 16 secs of video which gave me 675 frames to play with in Registax. I used the bullet camera with the 3x barlow with a partial lense cap on to reduce the over exposure on the image (I can't change the exposure/frame rate/etc on this camera). Processed it in Registax using wavelets 6/5/4/3 with values of 50/24/12/4. I played around with reference frames but that seemed to make things worse.
Not sure what the seeing was like, the view was better than the other day when I guessed seeing was 2 or 3 but I think that is a result of collimating the scope. The quick star test showed a circular diffraction pattern that was previously a rounded triangle...things are improving. Transparency was woeful with jupiter only showing for very brief periods.
Given the frame grab and the final processed image do you think I could do better with the processing or should I concentrate on getting better raw footage?
Cheers
Brett
