Jupiter 25th March 2007 (UT) - back on the horse

Thanks to Damian Peach, I have sorted out a Jupiter that I am happy with this apparition.

I am getting used to the “seeing” appearing better than they are due to the increased frame rates.

Damian had suggested a long L channel and shorter RGB’s.

At the moment I am capturing 40s x 30fps = 1200 frames of L, and 30s x 15fps = 450 frames of RGB. I have 3 x 10 second pauses for filter changeover. This is 160 seconds. I think this is ok for my image scale.

My histogram for the L channel is above 200, but for the RGB, they are below 150. This should change once I get Astonomik filters. I also notice that the B filter is the best for focusing and the red seems the poorest transmitter of light???

So thanks heaps Mr Peach!
