Saturn in good seeing
Tuesday night was good seeing in Melbourne. Shot these two with a Canon 550d and a modified Microsoft Lifecam Studio. The Webcam turned out better than I thought, less noise than the Canon but the Canon shows more detail.

Both shot through an 8 inch f5 Newtonian. 2xBarlow and 6mm eyepiece projection using movie crop mode @ 1600 iso for the Canon and 2.5x TV Powermate using SharpCap for the Webcam.
