I would like to take this opportunity to thank Bert (avandonk) for his humble generosity (many of you have also been on the receiving end of Berts generosity).
Bert watched me struggle along doing 'Live' AstroVideo Broadcasting with the Samsung SCC-A2333 AstroVideo Camera for over a year, and he appreciated the effort I went to in showing the world our Southern Skies (Bert is heavily in support of Astro Outreach).
He liked what I was trying to achieve with my southern sky outreach on NSN (even whole schools watch) that he said that because I am putting in so much effort to show the world our Southern Sky 'Live' that I should do it properly.
In his own words: "You order the best there is and I will pay for it".
I ordered the best there is. The Mallincam Xtreme (MCX).
I have had my Xtreme for over 2 weeks now, and broadcast with it on NSN 3 times and
absolutely love it. The clarity and resolution of the 'Live' image is amazing!
I thank you Bert. A true gentleman and devoted Astronomy enthusiast
who's wish is that everyone gets to see the night sky.
Bert, I will certainly do my part
To show the quality of the 'Live' video ability of the Mallincam Xtreme, here are some single frame Screen captures from my Live broadcast on NSN from last weekend.
This is exactly what you see on screen 'Live'. Not recorded, not stacked, not processed. 'Live'
Throw away your Eyepieces folks
