Well I used the ED127 for the first time in yonks last night with the "new super improved" focuser. What a difference its made. I wont be ordering a new focuser now I believe the mods/improvements made have been well worth the costs involved ($30 for post both ways and 1/2 doz of his favourite brew) The camera is now securely held, however I still use a tether to stop accidental dropping of the 350D, just in case.
Spent the night, well until 11ish, checking it out and have taken 300 photos of Jupiter (of different exposure and ISO settings) and about 10 of the moon. All I gotta do now is process them to see if they are any good. Had a quick go with Registrax to stack 10 frames and I can see banding on Jupiter but the picture is so damn small when I try to increase the size it starts to pixelate badly. Do I need to use a Barlow in the setup to increase the size of the picture?
