Description

I imaged for the first time Saturn with my Televue 2.5x Powermate on my Celestron C11. Previously for the past 1.5 years I was unable to use my powermate with my CG-5 mount. Since I switched over to my Losmandy G11 with its better tracking I have been able to finally take advantage with its use.

I am very pleased with the results at about F30 focal length 8000 to 9000MM.

I used Backyard EOS Software with my CanonT2i and had to boost the ISO all the way up to 6400 to see the image on my computer screen ; when imaging without the 2.5X I can image the video at 800 ISO.
