Webcam Noobie Question

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo
Guy, yes you can... Registax will take care of that, as long as the planet is still within the frame.

Of course, you must realize that "the higher the magnification, the faster the object will move in the FOV", so you will have to play catch-up quite a bit... wink (that's why a tracking mount is HIGHLY desiderable)



Clear skies, and good luck!

If you are calibrating sensors, yes, you'll need Polaris... but after that, unless you are on a Wedge, you won't need it anymore... wink

Just do a 2 star alignment after that, and you'll be set... 8)


ENJOY IT!
And please let us know how it goes, once you start collecting those faint fuzzies... wink
