I thought I would try out my new Philips ToUcam Pro webcam along with the adapter I bodged together for it yesterday. Used a Vixen FL80S (80mm F8 fluorite refractor), 2x barlow, and Baader UV-IR-cut filter. Used 25 frames averaged in Keith's Image Stacker (I'm on a Mac). Result was resampled in Photoshop 6 and sharpening and minor color correction applied. I can't wait to use this camera with my 10" newtonian !
