good shoot! But will be better if you deinterlace your video before processing, the horizontal lines disappear. See the free soft VirtualDub, filters...

Nice result. The 900nc will definitely be a step up.

What scope do you use it with?

Great piccie.....I agree with Mike, the 900nc will be quite a step up from the camera you've been using. You want to try a GSTAR-EX
