Agent Webcam
A while ago I started playing around with an Agent webcam I bought on Ebay. Later I bought one of the colour DSI's and the webcam got put aside. The DSI has so far been a pain in the behind, so back to the webcam. After a bit of hacking and dismantling I ended up with the body and a bare CCD chip. Yesterday I managed to graft on an IR filter to replace the built in one which was removed with the lens holder, and with a polarizing filter stacked on top these are the results so far. The software with the cam also gives some control over brightness, contrast, exposure, gamma etc. Still playing with these settings.
All 3 are avi's reduced to individual bitmaps and stacked in registax and given minimal processing in Paintshop Pro 7.
The first two are slightly different settings on the polarizing filter I used, the third is with a little tweaking of the software settings as well.
All video files were around 200 frames. Scope was 80mm SurplusShed ATM refractor at prime focus.
