Hey all,
another afocal Jupiter but this time with a 3x GSO Barlow and a 10mm Nagler on my 10inch Dob. My Camera, Kodak Z 812 IS, has a HD video mode so decided to give it a crack at 30fps. Quiet disappointing unfortunately as i can't control ISO levels or focus manually when in video mod. So noise was extremely high even after i used a yellow filter since the avi's where over exposed!Anyhow, here's the result and it is worth mentioning that seeing wasn't really good.
used PPMcenter (renamed to Ninox now) to center the planet and crop the images.Around 100 Images where stacked with Registax 5 and lot of Photoshop processing for the end result
First 2 images are frames from the shot AVI and the third image is the end result.
Mainly, this was done to upskill my processing skills as they seem to make a huge difference in showing details!!
PS: Tried to follow Mike's Tutorial as much as possible and which is an excellent tutorial by the way (
