Hi Everyone, I thought I should post details for my shot of Jupiter the night before last. The scope was a Celestron 4SE, the camera was a IS DBK 21A F04.AS using a Vixen 2x barlow & Baader UV/IR cut filter. It was processed with Astro IIDC 4.00.04 & I scaled the image 4x. I hope to do some more experiments with my C10-NGT reflector & 2x barlow next but am advised that it`s FL is shorter than the 4SE hence the smaller scale images I`m getting. Before the end of the year I hope to purchase a Televue 5x Powermate barlow & try once again with both scopes. Alan, you suggested I share my results with Jupiter some months ago so I hope you`re reading this! Mark.
