Hi to all

a new sequence of Jupiter is visible now on my personal page.
(23:10 to 00:38 local time).

Clears skies

Oh my GOD!!

Get out!!

Get out get out get out!!!! :-)

I'm sooooo jealous!! Are you serious about the 180mm??!!!
How can you possibly get such razor-sharp rich-in-detail
images from just a 7-inch tube?!!

I've got an 8-inch Newtonian reflector, and the images
I've been able to take are the most incredible joke
compared to these ("incredible joke" is actually such
an understatement!). He

*sigh* and I was so proud and so happy with them....
Now I'm depressed!! ;-)

Hi Carlos ;-)
You must be constant always and to apply technical adequate.
Isn't important 7" or 8" inch tube. Very important a seeing (1st
condition!!) , good transparency ,collimation , cool down setting (optical)
and focusing .
Try again!! Don't worry. ;-)

Thanks for your comments, Sandro.

What I meant is that the size of the scope puts a limit in the
amount of detail that you can get at a given magnification (or
equivalently, the highest magnification that you can get for
a given level of detail/sharpness)

The shots you took are about 5 times larger than the ones I
have (from Jupiter, that is), and they're infinitely richer
in detail and sharper; such level of detail, I associate
with a 10 or 12 inches scope, that's why it surprised me
so much that you could get it with a 7-inch scope!

Obviously, I was kidding when I said I was depressed -- your
skills and expertise are clearly very high, so that gives me
the hope that there is so much more that I can learn and so
much room for improvement! Some day, some day!!

Thanks again for sharing these amazing images with us!!

Cheers,

Carlos

Hi Carlos
I'm sorry for late answer.

I think , is better a small optical but very well worked than a bad large
diameter,
also the obstruction is very important.
On my 7"inch the obstruction is under 20%

Obviously, I was kidding when I said I was depressed -- your
skills and expertise are clearly very high, so that gives me
the hope that there is so much more that I can learn and so
much room for improvement!
Some day, some day!!

I'm sure of it ! ;-))
