Saturn

My first Saturn, taken on 5 Mar 2014. Meade LX200-ACF 10" @ f/10. Better seeing than my Jupiter attempt, but I'm still limited to a focal length of 2500mm using a Canon 600d in HD video mode.

Converted to AVI/RGB24 in VirtualDub then stacked the best 15% of 6000 frames in Registax6 and sharpened with wavelets. Further modest processing in Gimp.

That's a nice capture that, especially for f/10! Can you send some of the seeing this way

Not sure if you're looking for a Barlow, but the Baader Hyperion Barlow 2.25x included a T2 adapter in the box - assuming you're booking your 600d up that way if course
