Attempt at Prime Focus
Viewing conditions here in FNQ a little hazy with the temperature up a little & the humidity starting to rise.
Finally discovered how to use the focusing zoom aid in EOS utility live view but, still not happy with the focus & sharpness of my images.
Visual views are much sharper so, clearly my focusing efforts need some work. Perhaps a Batinov Mask is in the near future.
Images taken with Canon EOS 1100d (unmodded) & 2.5x Powermate.
Jupiter is a stack of 16 x 1/80 sec images at ISO 1600. Images stacked in Affinity Photo.
Saturn is a single shot at 1/20 sec, ISO 1600. Tried to stack multiple images but, it just turned out a mess.
I have a video capture of Saturn that I might try & process tomorrow; need to download some software to separate the video images prior to attempting a stack.
