I stayed at QLD Astrofest for a single night and went straight for Jupiter. I'm stoked with the results considering I only have an 8" newtonian! Never been able to capture detail like this before. I'm questioning whether I can squeeze any more out of this scope.
Details: 8" Newt + vanilla EQ6, SPC900NC + UV/IR filter, 3x Tv Barlow + insane amount of extension (5500mm+ FL). 90sec @ 10fps runs, 2hr animation at 5min intervals.
