Had pretty decent seeing but unfortunately the winds were gusting to about 20 knots. This made for a lot of spoiled images and only 80 or so images to stack. The scope was moving around so much that Jupiter kept jumping out of the image frame.

NexStar 11 - Olympus C4000Z at full digital zoom - 14mm Radian - 80 images - 1/30 second

Best,

Hi Jose
Thats a great image! Please excuse my ignorance of your camera equipment. Is the Digicam a video camera? or a digital still camera? I Bought a Radian 14mm and an adapter for my Mini DV camera and have not had alot of luck centering the subject when I zoom in. any suggestions?
Thanks Rich
PS a sample of my best image yet also my only attempt to date
