Attached is one of my first attempts at Jupiter last year with a DBK 21 Imaging Source camera. This is a colour camera & is a little less sensitive as to resolution when focused than your DMK 21 (I must get one of these when I can!) In other words you should get a finer image than me with your DMK! My colour here is a bit too red I`m told. Also attached is a moon shot with a colour Flea 2 camera & 0.3 Mogg FR so you can see that quite precise focus is possible. My Flea 2 is 640 x 480 pixels or thereabouts although the pixel size is 7.4 microns as compared to 5.6 on the 21 series Imaging Source cameras. I`ve turned the settings on this colour camera to a grey colour-more veracity to actual reality than all my shots taken of the moon with the DBK. Both of these are with a C9.25 scope.
