Thanks Andrew, I record to the camera's SD card and copy the capture to the computer later. That's one advantage of the dslr over a dedicated planetary camera, less to take outside and no cables hanging off the OTA. The Jupiter capture was a 3min grab, Saturn a 6min grab and Mars was 3.5mins. The seeing, I would regard as average during the captures. Had I used the ASI 120MM, results would have been better but my wife had the Laptop to watch movies on Netflix.
