My best Jupiter so far

I'm a deep sky imager, not a planet imager. But I want to learn the dark art of planetary imaging. Funds are pretty limited at the moment so have to use the equipment that I've got, which at F4 is not really the greatest for planets! I also don't have the correct adapters so I'm just holding the camera to the eyepiece. I have an eyepiece projection adapter tube coming so hopefully with that I can improve.

So this is where I'm at. GSO 10" F4 Newtonian, HEQ5 Pro, 675 frames stacked in Registax, eyepiece projection from a Televu 7.5mm eyepiece, Pentax K-5 handheld.
