Hi all, here is my Jupiter from last night. Jupiter seems almost as hard as mars to image, I'm not very good at it. This is my best jupiter so far I think,...
Hi Ken, Jupiter is very difficult to image right now especially because it is so low in the sky. But it's also a good opportunity to push our imaging...
yea that's what I did, I overexposed to get the moons then plopped jupiter on top of the overexposed sun looking jupiter. Yea it was only about 15 degrees in...
Hi, For some time now, I have been wondering why always image the Moon in B&W? I know that some people do it in color. So on the 20 aug, I tried it for the...
Monti: ... nice! For some really interesting stuff on lunar geology (including colouration caused by various concentrations of metals and minerals) go to the...
Thanks for the information, Leonard. I took a look at the site and it is indeed very interesting. There is also a nice site created by Filipe Alves regarding...
So I finally got a halfway descent jupiter, so much better then my last one i posted couple days ago. This was only 250 frames that i got before the clouds...
yea with my image, it was real low, only about 18 degrees up, seeing was just ok and the clouds rolled in and i only got like 250 frames total. wish i was...
Hi, Last august 21-22nd, I used a friend's 16 1/2 inch Newtonian telescope (F5.86) to image Jupiter. Not the best scope for planetary imaging but fun doing...
Monti: What a nice bright image. Makes me want to drop in for a holiday weekend. Aw darn, another bad forecast with nothing but helium rain and nowhere to...
Hi, On the evening of sept 16th, I was doing NI overexposed captures of Jupiter's moons, Io and Europa, to eventually plot their orbits. Each overex avi has to...
The October 2008 issue of the A.L.P.O. Lunar Section's monthly newsletter, The Lunar Observer, has been uploaded to: http://www.zone-vx.com/tlo.pdf Thanks to...
Hi, I've started processing some of the approx 150 short avis done since mid-august in order to plot moons orbits around Jupiter. The avis are about 200 images...
Hi, Well, more surprises!... Here is an image obtained from a series of short avis from 17 and 19 aug. The 19 aug avis (about 03 UT) showed Jupiter with GRS...
Hi Monti, I am new to this group and just started using the NexImage this year. Will upload once I get the post-processing done. Anyway, what great imaging...
Hi Ron, Thanks for the comment. As for the coloration of Ganymede, it is probably processing artifact! The moons come from an overexposed avi, it is the only...
Larry: There's a lot of information that needs to be ascertained (what are the salient specs of your imaging scope and guidescope, etc.) before someone can...
Hi Leonard, I am intrigued by your use of the Neximage as a guide cam. How do you get the signal back to your scope to guide it? It sounds like a nice viable...
Hi Wyatt: I'll start from scratch just to make sure I don't miss anything ... The signal from the Neximage goes into a USB port on the computer, then Metaguide...
Thank you Leonard, This is awesome and well thought out. I am going to extract some information here and put it into my thought blender to see if I can come up...
I have been using my NexImage on a laptop which is running Vista for several months now without any problems. I use K3CCDTOOLS when imaging and found last week...
Hi Peter, I am using Vista and it works fine for me. I know that MS will update your drivers and make global changes to your Windows environment without your...
Hi Wyatt, I have applied Vista SP1, so that may be my problem?? As I don't need Vista for anything I am minded to change to XP. Peter ... your Windows...
Hi Peter, Consider looking in Device Manager and then at the Properties of your Neximage and see if you have the option to 'Roll Back' the driver? Wyatt. From:...
Hi Peter, That problem you mention of Neximage not functionning when starting a capture is something I am quite familar with. I also use AMCAP. I do not know...
