Tonight I had more time to set up the telescope (ETX 90EC) to image Saturn. I was able to get pictures with and without a 2X Barlow. I was surprised how good the Barlowed view of Saturn turned out (considering the small aperature of the scope). Slight banding is evident in the picture.
I am posting the Barlowed picture. It is made up of 250 (out of 500) frames, aligned and stacked with Registax. Seeing was not real good when I was taking the pictures, so focusing was difficult. I used a Philips Vesta Pro camera.
Enjoy!!
