Description

Best seeing in 2020 so far (until mid of July at least...). Cassini division clearly shows and I think it shows a hint of the Encke gap & minima at the sides. Also the inner C ring is faintly visible.

I rearranged my imaging train, shortened it by 40mm. Put the lens element of my barlow in a compression ring in front of the ADC. This allowed for much finer tuning of the ADC. The magnification of the barlow also dropped from 2.2x to 1.8x which is better for the sampling.
