Description

3 moons are seen in this image. From left to right: Europa, Io, Ganymede.

The bottom image is a single, unprocessed frame.

Technical details:

Orion 8” f/4 Newt + 2x barlow (effective focal length: 1600mm) on Sirius EQ-G mount.

Canon 650D – added the MagicLantern firmware (http://www.magiclantern.fm/ , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_Lantern_%28firmware%29)

This enabled the crop-video mode on 650D.

So I used the “center 1920x1080” from the sensor instead of “scaling” the full sensor to 1920x1080.

ISO 400, 1920x1080@30fps, 1/160sec, 3 min video. Used best 50% of the approx.. 5400 frames for stacking.

Processed in “AutoStakkert!2” (http://www.autostakkert.com/wp/). Slightly enhanced contrast and sharpness further in DPP.
