First Saturn - Help Please.
Hi,
Here's my first Saturn image, and I would really value your help to improve the quality of my efforts.
The data was acquired from color video camera to Mini-DV tape camcorder then fed later via firewire into PC - captured in Astrovideo and saved to color .AVI files.
.AVI files were edited and cut to 600 frames duration in Arcsoft Showbiz (so as not to kill Registax).
.AVI files were aligned and stacked in Registax. Mild wavelets applied (layers 3 and 5 only - at increment of 1).
Focus was acheived visually by using a Hartman mask and watching on TV.
The data was captured in a Meade SN-8" LXD-75 using Mintron 62V1P-Ex color video camera. An Orion Shorty (x2) Barlow stacked into a Televue Powermate x4. Digital zoom off. Effective focal length about f/35. Shutter was 1/100, AGC gain maximum, no filters.
