First test image of Moon with Skynyx and 12.5"
Hi guys,
it's been months since I posted but received my Sxynyx camera last week. Other than 2 large dust specs on the CCD chip (so it's going back for a replacement!) it looks like a really nice camera. A bit pricey but low noise and great tonal range. Should be awsome on Jupiter in a few months I think.
Attached are my first test shots taken of the moon - Messier & Messier A and Posidonious in poor conditions - 4/10 and wind.
Quick processing - just only alignment point 350 and 250 frames respectively and mild deconnvolution in Astra Image.
Only can capture at 20fps at the moment due to a slow laptop but this will change in the comming months.
Paul Haese (Rumples Riot) has offered some great advice on capture settings etc so should start getting some good images over the coming months. Filter wheel on the way.
Have a great Xmas and NY's.
John K.
