See Jupiter through an 8″ f/5 GSO Newton telescope with a QHY5-II-m camera
Jupiter through GSO 200 mm f/5 (f=1000mm) with QHY5-II-M camera (without and with 2x barlow lens). Camera chip pixel size 3.75um x 3.75um, resolution 1280×960. Magnification=155 – 310
Jupiter and some of his moons
Tonight I imaged Jupiter and some of his moons – a relatively bright spot in the sky – with my DMK31AU03.AS “The Image Source” camera. This was the first time I saw Jupiter through a telescope. Fantastic! First I could not believe that the other bright spots around are some of his moons! Unfortunately I too excited to note down the camera setting this time… 🙂
One of the images below has been taken without a barlow lens and one with a 2x Powermate TeleVue barlow lens. For stacking the images I used the Registax tool.
