Hi Matt, I sent you an e-mail to your other e-mail address on the TIFF - for some reason the attachment got stripped out on the way over as "unsafe"? You could try again from your home PC?

This is looking very promising but I would like to see what some decovolution processing in Astra Image could do. Hard to tell from an image if seeing or collimation is a limiting factor. It's looks reasonable for ordinary seeing conditions - what would you have rated the conditions out of 10?

The only two things I'd suggest at this stage, is run longer avi - say 200 sec to get 2000 frames to play with aiming to stack about half of em. The second is to up your exposure a little. If you're already at 1/10th sec 10fps then this will have to be via more gain and or Gamma or Brightness. On the brightness/light meter, histogram thingy (tech term) in K3CCD tools somewhere between 180 and 200 for Saturn seems good.

hope that helps,

cheers,
