Jupiter with an ED80

I was informed this evening (after struggling to process this as best I could) that ED80's aren't all that good for planetary work!

Oh well, I gave it my best shot. I got this image of Joop just as it rose from the horizon. Needless to say the seeing was rubbish being that low

ED80, Toucam (on normal mode almost forgot it had normal mode ), 1.25" 2x barlow in a 2" 2x barlow. (captured-4th April 2007, about 10:30pm)

I quite like it as I think it's the best I've ever gotten. But I'll leave the planets to the Planetary guys
