Yeah, I've had several reads through Mikes article Infact, a thread I started is mentioned in there (towards the end of the section about camera adapters). His article is very useful, but for the image capture part of things, I have to make it up as I go as I use a video camera rather than a webcamera, and so my options are limited to brightness control rather than saturation, contrast etc.
Its all in good fun though! Experimentation is the key to learning =)
Hey Chrissyo, their ok shots...mars is not easy to image! You did good mate especially with no tracking. Keep up the good work! What camera do you use again?
Edit: I see what camera you use....U got your post in before me lol
I know with what bird will come up with at the end of the week will be a show stopper, but just as satisfying is doing what you and I are doing. I know when i started processing my 1/11 mars images, i was over the moon. Setting up the guide scope so that mars is about to cross the field of view, fine tuning.
These shots are great. I know I want to get tracking and cooling and ........... but i still love the results you can get with some hard work.
