I'm a bit dissapointed I can't get any better with this camera really. But one can't expect toucam quality pics out of a point & shoot easyshare I guess.
I'll be nipping that problem in the bud real soon though.
You've inspired me to turn my humble outfit "marswards" tonight and try and capture the red fella while he's still a decent size.
I've been building up to it all week, what with moon and venus pix.
That's a great pic and an example of what's possible even with modest gear. Well done mate. As fringe_dweller points out, you've probably gotten everything out of that little kodak you're gonna get.
Not very often I get good seeing conditions here, I've seen 9.5/10 once in 8 years I think. If I could just get one night like that again.. That's the only thing holding me back from getting better images. Apart from being a n00b at stacking/processing so no doubt that's holding the show up a bit too. That will come in time though.
Yep Kearn, stacked (about 450 frames from memory) with another 1/2 dozen AVIs to sort through yet.
What camera/setup do you use again Matt?
Thanks guys.
I use an F8 150mm achro. refractor most times these days due to it's quick setup/pull down in this unpredictable weather at the moment. Soon I'll get the chance to setup up the 12.5" newt.
I was looking at a sony cybershot only yesterday actually. Nice camera. Good luck Matt with capturing mars! I'm sure you'll pull off a good image/s.
that gets an eye pop mate - amazing Asirox! you have gone about as far as anyone possibly could with that set up i would think! is that stacked dude?
