Jupiter, Saturn and Mars through my Edge 11 Telescope (Video)

I recently created a video for YouTube outlining my process of capturing Jupiter, Saturn and Mars, at least as it stood in mid 2020. Since then I’ve also added some more parts to the mix, such as the Advanced Barlow, Tel Vue Powermate 4x, ASI290MM and 8 position ZWO filter wheel, and the QHY462, but in this video I focus on just using the simple Celestron 2X Barlow and Asi224MC.

Jupiter and Saturn were rather low in the sky this year, but Mars has been pretty high at times, definitely over the 40 degree point, which is generally where the ADC (Atmospheric Distortion Corrector) isn’t needed.

I can get pretty high capture frame rates with a Region of Interest (ROI) using firecapture, then take those results and stack using Autostakkert and then use Registax to sharpen and Photoshop to finish things off.

Here is the link to the video where I break things down in greater detail.

There are better resolution photos in my gallery but here are few shots.
