Congrats on a great pic Paul!! I don't remember you posting it here (maybe you did and I just missed it). I see you're using a red filter, seems to be working nicely for you!

Jupiter and Io 04/01/05Posted By Mike Wirths |
Wow 6300 frames!! The thing that strikes me is the great colour that the camera gives, much finer tones seem to be conveyed! Hope you get some great seeing soon! Have you tried it on Saturn since it has a much better position in the sky?
I'm a little miffed with Lumenera right now! I had a good working rapport with one of the employees there, he was nice enough to pass on the link to K3CCD tools to the software developers there at the office to see if they could get it to work with the cameras. He agreed that $1000 was too much for a camera sold to private individuals and that a lower cost alternative should be looked into. Well I guess that guy is no longer with the company and the new person I have been talking to will not give the Norpix software at the lower $400 price. I just can't see paying that much for SW in a camera that may only be used for a year until the next better one comes along! I'll wait to see what the new 16 bit cameras from Atik will be like, otherwise I'll just order from Paolo!!
cheers

Jupiter this morningPosted By Mike Wirths |
Amazing shot Jim! Congrats, easily one of the best this season, especially given how crappy an altitude it has from our latitudes!!

WOW Alan! Thats freakin amazing! I like both versions maybe a slight nod to the colour one but the B&W one might have a touch more faint detail!
Good timing on that one eh? 8)
thanks

Really superb Wes!!!
I love how the little bit oblique angle gives that flyby sensation! Nicely captured with no overexposed areas!

Petavius with no shadows 04/15/05Posted By Mike Wirths |
Really cool shot Wes!! Seems to make the crater much more shallow, probably just an optical illusion though. I know the type of seeing you're talking about, makes the registering/aligning much harder to do later on!!
keep em coming!

keep em coming!

Theophilus & Cyrillus mosaicPosted By Mike Wirths |
OK, took some advice on the brightness, sharpened it a bit more and now the seam is almost gone
(BTW if people want to fiddle with my images and repost please do so, we are after all here to learn form each other!)
I think its a fair bit better!
cheers
