This Saturn picture has a bit more details in the cloud bands on the planet than the shot taken on 03/12. The rings are not as sharp as we would like, so maybe its time to check collimation next time…

 

Co workmanship between Henk and me:

Me, with my nose in my notebook screen, giving directions and Henk pushing the buttons of the Motofocus of his magnificent 16” SCT.

Who needs a Barlow or Powermate if you can image with 4 meters focal length at f10 ?

Still we tried using a Powermate 2.5x, but first seeing was mediocre at 2/10 and one hour later the clouds rolled in

This Saturn was taken with an excellent 16” SCT. The seeing in the Netherlands was as usual terrible.

 

PS

I’m still a Dobson fan or better a Dobaholic, but I thought it was time to check out how easy webcamming with a guided scope is…

The 16” SCT belongs to my astro friend Henk Prein. So he gets the credits for this picture.

This picture is taken with my 14” f5.8 truss Dobson.

My best result so far, too bad I didn’t check the saturation before pushing the record button. Ah well it turned out not bad in B/W.
