Thanks Mike, The scope was the 12" DOB. I must admit in total I took 116 Shots and after the first 100 I remembered to put on my glasses, hence the sharp focus. Actually I found the sharper focus was achieved by using the viewfinder on the camera instead of the live view.

I agree about the webcam, I looked at the 3 x Barlow images after posting this and it was a bit motion blurred. I could up the ISO to 1600 and see if I can get a faster shutter speed for the higher resolution, but the webcam I used in the past did a lot better.

I have decided to build a EQ platform for the DOB, so when that is complete I should get a load of improvement.
