Thanks Guys
I am very happy with the camera and the acquisition software that came with it, it is excellent and relatively easy to learn and use. Oops, I was in a hurry to catch a bus when I posted my last message, it was only when I was on the bus I realised that where on earth did that message end up in whatever section, thanks Al for fixing, on the ball as always!
Anyway here is my modest attempt at imaging Saturn from last night with same setup. This image is cropped as Saturn appears to take up only around 6% of the total image frame at F6.3. I think I need to get one of those StellaVue PowerMates and a good equatorial mount, perhaps an observatory as well, time for remortgaging me thinks :lol: !

After one look at this planet any visitor from outer space would say; "I WANT TO SEE THE MANAGER".
