Hello !
I allways wanted to capture the moons of saturn in tape, finally yesterday night I had the opportunity to set up my telescope and take some video of saturn
I used a Sony Handycam trv310 in nightshot mode and a 6" telescope. Also used registax to align and stack the frames.
then with picture windows pro I put the lables with the names of the moons.
Thanks,

Alvaro Garay

I took this one also.
A total of 320 frames were stacked using Registax
and Picture windows Pro to enhance the image.
Thanks,

Alvaro Garay

Alvaro,
I also took a photo of Saturn's moons last night (with my NexStar 5i and a ToUCam, f/10, 300 frames in Registax), but I didn't realize the spot near Titan was Iapetus; I thought it was just a background star. Six moons in one image! Cool!
Thanks,
-Joe
