well as Ive heard "There are no stupid questions, but there are a LOT of inquisitive idiots." here I go.
still dont own my own scope,and with about a 1/2 hour total viewing experience I ask the following.
the CCD image showing the formation of 'oval BA" on jupiter on the news page, was taken through an 11" scope. how would this image compare with the naked eye view observed through the same scope?
cheers.

Photos would always be better than what you would see at the eyepiece.

so the impression I'm getting is, you could expect similar, if changing detail with less depth of colour.
