Compact fun

Had a play doing some afocal photography on Monday night using a Sony RX100M3 set up to a 6mm eyepiece and 2 x Barlow in an 8 inch Newt. The seeing was pretty bad and cloud was reducing the transparency, so this was by no means serious stuff, just something a bit different. These were shot using the camera's Full HD video at 50fps. Saturn was a 4 min grab and Jupiter a 1 1/2min grab. Had the seeing and transparency been better, the result may not have been too bad.
