Hi all,

I'm having lots of trouble with astro-imaging at the moment with my Philips spc900nc. I've modded it and added the screw-in adapter. I've got my target - the moon, with 40% moon filter. Prime focus.

But no matter what, I can never get the image to be more than a bright blur with any of the freebie software i've been trialling. Frantic adjustments of settings don't seem to be helping either. Is it that the moon is simply too bright at the moment, even with a filter??

I can take some nice shots with digital cam via afocal method, but any object - even a pea sized jupiter cannot be picked up by webcam... any tips??

Many thanks!!
Tim.
