Jupiter with ASI120mm
Im no planetary imager for sure but I thought I would trial my new ASI120MM camera as a planetary camera with my 10"SCT at 2500mm FL. Ie I didnt use a barlow and just plugged in the camera to the scope and shot at 640x480 at about 60fps. Took a 90 sec avi and stacked in Autostakkert and then wavelettes in Registax.
I compared it to Asimovs image and although Jupiter was boiing like crazy and the conditions were cr@ppy the amount of detail is quite good.
I should state that as a guider its absolutely brilliant with PhDguiding and gives a beautiful clean frame after dark subtraction and absolutely pinpoint stars to guide on.
Comments welcomed.
