Thanks Kev and Mike – this was a real bonus as I didn’t expect the moons to come out.
Mike, I only had the x2.5 Powermate fitted, and although the moons were well below the threshold of the (colour) DBK, the (mono) DMK “easily” picked them up, albeit with 1 second exposures! I would have liked to go longer than 1 second but then Saturn’s brightness would have swamped Titan and Tethys.
It was very interesting seeing the huge amount of colour noise with the DBK at 1/5 second exposure, whereas the DMK image, at 1/15 second was so much smoother.
Interestingly enough, the visual sight through the eyepiece looked very pleasing, although only Titan could be seen.
Cheers
Dennis
