Here's my almost-opposition attempt at Saturn w/8" Criterion, Afocal Canon SX-100 in video mode, 967 frames (out of ~2700), TMB Planetary II eyepiece:

This next one was the same night, but a different run with many more frames 3600'ish, and it barely registered at this scale, but Registax is magic!

Superb image! I presume this is a Newt, not the Dynamax
SCT. Probably the best image ever taken with an 8"
Criterion.
