Description

I was experimenting with different sampling rates, operating the C14 at F18 with the lens from the barlow screwed inside the camera nosepiece, very close to the camera sensor cover for the first image, then without the barlow lens, so at the C14s native F11 for the second image. The first image is a stack of best 20% from each 3x6 mins SER, then de-rotated/stacked in WinJupos, whereas the 2nd image is just best 20% of a single 6 min SER.
Seeing and transparency were poor, so it's difficult to draw any conclusions, but there's didn't seem to be much, if any, advantage capturing at the higher sampling rate for the RGB. However, the IR captured earlier in the evening at F18 (see here) was much better.
