Description

To improve my skills on Lunar astrophotography, I tried eyepiece projection method (EPM) combined with lucky imaging.

In normal format, my data gathering is under sampled. When I used a 2x-Barlow (2.4x), It becomes highly over sampled. But using EPM and the whole sensor 1080p video clip, I found a middle ground.

It was a challenging project. Firstly, My telescope doesn't has a full frame flat field. So, distortion issue come along. Secondly, Stacking artifacts started to appear. Moreover, Panels didn't match perfectly. So I needed to be patient and find out how to deal with them.
