Yep! Now we're cookin'. Certainly is a great little camera. Is this a 6 pane mosaic?

Hi John,

10 panels (I thought I would be cautious as I hate having a set of images that won't blend).

The panoramas will have to wait till the weekends (its terrible when work interferes with your hobby )

I still like doing the PST DSLR images. The one I took today captured that lovely prominence. They are quick and capture the essence of the Sun on the day.

Thanks for telling us about the camera. I hope I can improve my images. I also got a filter wheel so looking forward to Jupiter later in the year.

RichardJ

Well when you get sick of the big 10 pane mosaics, you can most certainly get away with 6 panes for the disc, & 6 for the proms at prime focus. You just have to be careful with the overlaps.
