Hi, there is my first image of Saturn I have ever made. I have used newtonian telescope 200/1000 on EQ-6 GoTo mount. The image is an average of 600 image thorough Canon Ixus 970.

That's a great image for being taken through a digicam! Well done! Did you use the movie mode?

How did you attach the camera to the eyepiece?

I used an afocal holder for attach a digicam to eyepiece. I think it was 3 mm Vixen. Yes, I used a video mode because I need a lot of pictures. It is processed by Registax. The resolution is 640x480 px but the image http://www.explosiongames.ic.cz/saturn2.jpg is cut.
