Hi everyone,

Here is another image from October 14th. It is under a very similar Sun angle as Wes Higgins' superb image and it was taken a month after his, too bad it doesn't have the same resolution. grin
Meade LX90 8" SCT @ f/25, DMK 21AF04 @ 30fps, 400/2250 frames, taken 9:29 UT, resized 120%.

Thanks,
Ed Roach

Ed,

Beautiful image. I really like the smooth photo like quality. Do you have your scope equatorially mounted? I am still imaging in Alt-Az and probably will just because of the scope storage situation and setup for each image session.

I am considering the DMK camera with the hope that I can start getting some un-compressed and larger avi files to work with. How do you like your DMK?

Thanks for sharing your wonderful image.
