Thanks! Especially from you. Jupiter was around 20 degrees above horizon.

Yes, software I use also has histogram, but I dodn't use him very often. I set exposure by eye (I set image slightly dark - underexposed to freeze the seeing distortions as much as possible by shorter exposures). Now I know it wasn't good idea, but I still reading your perfect articles about planetary imaging and trying to set my camera up for the best results.

Camera desciption tells about 15fps @ 1280x1024px resolution increasing to 60fps @ 640x480px. But now I solving problem with low fps even with 1ms exposure (problem is propably in computer). Here is a simple graph of real fps, that camera produce on my laptop. I thing, that 640x480 or 320x240px should be usable for planetary.

And, sorry for my english.
