I've had reasonable success doing deep-sky imaging with a StellarVue SV102EDT refractor and a DSLR, and would like to try my hand at lunar and planetary imaging using high-frame-rate video with postprocessing as shown in this forum.
It seems debatable whetehr this is feasible using a small-aperture (102 mm) refractor because there may not be enough light gathering to support a 4x PowerMate and a webcam.
What are your thoughts on this? Are there specific camera choices that should be sought or avoided to make this work?
Thanks for any help!
