Hi fellow observers,
It did take almost a year before some good seeing returned to my lowland country to image Jupiter. It was nice to see that some detail came out now and just with the red spot returning away and Io close to limb of the planet
best regards Jan Adelaar

normally I have to capture 15 fps to get at least some usable frames, now I could collect at 5 fps with the good old plain ToUcam

Very nice Jan and welcome back. Hope some good seeing comes your way soon.
The toucam remains a great tool. If you consider the price/quality ratio still probably the best out there!

Hi Jan,

Very impressive image, the Toucam on a good night is still about as good as it gets.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins
