Thanks Trevor, I have intentions of doing shorter runs on Saturn, but I'd like a larger mirror than my 13.1". Your 16" sounds like a good idea, and I checked into the logistics of a 16" mirror last year but so far I don't have any fixed plans to upgrade.

I also did some shorter runs on saturn this morning, 100 seconds on each channel. The roughly 14m effective focal length + 20fps capture rate makes it very dim, pushes my camera to the limit.
