Hi everyone,
Here is shot of Jupiter when seeing was only 5/10 captured at 5 fps. One thing Asi and I noticed that the Toucam could use a faster shutter speed than the Neximage with everything else the same pritty well. Also the Neximage with capture at 10 and 15 fps would show horizontal lines across the image where the Toucam would not. Although these are supposed to be identical cameras we think somehow the Toucam is more light sensitive.
To view this image I had to open the curtains and go out side the house, looks good from about 5 metres. I only remembered half of what you showed me last night, and I forgot to resize it down.
Heres the one I got with the extension tube Lester, the seeing was not up to it as we know. Must have restacked this one 5 different ways, looking best by stacking 101 frames.
Well that doesn't surprise me you added the arroma of onion in that one.
All jokes aside Asi, I do like your colouring better than mine and the edges are more crisp. I think it is your processing skills that are showing up more so than the camera characteristics. Does your 15fps shot show onion rings to a high degree, koz mine does.
Here it is. This is the one where I mentioned I could actually see the onion rings on screen as I was capturing? This is a real quick stack & process. 211 frames stacked. You can get it slightly better onion ring wize by stacking less frames, but still noticable.
just checked my Avis and I had deleted all the 15fps shots yesterday koz they were so bad with onion rings=much worse than yours Asi. So I am doing a 10 fps extentiontube 2x barlow version.
Pity about the onions. Nice shot considering the conditions.
Eventually you will come up with a set of rules, or guide lines to follow as far as processing go's. Until you become totally familiar with all the options at your disposal, your doing the right thing by fiddling & trying different things!
Well done I reckon...I was expecting far worse images than what we got!
..HISS" go the crowd!! Round 18 of the asi-cam versus Lest-image bantum-weight-crap-image prize fight!!'
