i have the modified toucam and will be able answer that after star camp.

I can get the same amount of features as asimov has got in a say a single 1 second or 2 second long exposure with a toucam

i need the tracking to be able to test how well the long exposure goes with a toucam versus 1000's and thousands of 1/25 sec exposures stacked.

all will be tested with a solid tracking scope at snake valley!

my honest opinion, i do not think that you could stack enough 1/25 sec exposures from a video to get the images we are used to with orion. An orion is the brightest!!
