    Thank you for such an enjoyable video.
    After years of observing grey smudges with visual astronomy, the colour and detail of swapping the eyepiece for a camera, on my setup, mirrored your comments.
    Thank you for sharing your observation session. I look forward to your next EAA session with your SCT.

      Totally agree. It was watching Lawrence livestack while we both observed the Veil at the Kelling star party last year that set me on this path ua-cam.com/video/adJu-eYPwPs/v-deo.html. I was avoiding any stray light, straining my eyes to sketch the grey smudges. He was sitting there with his feet up, with a glass of wine, seeing all the colours and details. Amazing!

    Nice video Mark, seems you’re really happy with live stacking with sharp cap. A couple of other people I know have been playing around with it as well. Your enthusiasm suggests I should give it a go.

      Thoroughly recommended Terri. It's the best eyepiece I have ever bought! Honestly, the views through the little refractor are reminiscent of using Jim's big dobs from a dark site.

      Hey Mark, I tried to catch the camera you’re using, the Saturn M maybe? Can you confirm? I was thinking about the same camera for full disk solar imaging and to get a better FOV with a Quark. It would be my first player one camera. Do you recommend it?

    Very nice video. It is always nice to capture the Liveview and see beautiful pictures of the universe appear on our screens. I think you have a little problem with tilt. The stars to the right look somewhat elongated. I really enjoy these Liveview images. A big hug.

      Thanks Jesus - ah, that may be from when I tilted the camera for solar imaging. I will go back and check. Un abrazo!

    Hey Mark. Thank you so much for making and uploading these videos, they are a joy to watch and extremely informative. I look forward to your video about your C11 as I have one, too, and am hoping to do EAA with later this year using Sharp Cap Live Stacking. Clear skies to you.

    • @RefreshingViews
      @RefreshingViews  10 місяців тому +1

      Thank you for your kind words. Glad you like them! I can thoroughly recommended live stacking it has completely changed the way I observe. I’d suggest a 0.66 focal reducer to give a slightly-less narrow field of view.

    Wow Mark, That really opens up a whole new window on backyard Astronomy! Do you think the technique would also work on a scope in AZ mode such as your AZEQ6? I think I will follow your example and get Sharpcap Pro. Well Done and thanks!

    • @RefreshingViews
      @RefreshingViews  10 місяців тому

      You will love it, Barry. I’m thinking it’s the best eyepiece I have ever bought! The image will rotate over the 10-20 minutes but not by much so it should work.

    Very nice video, thanks for sharing! Do you guide at all? Or are the 30s exposure short enough to avoid guiding?

    • @RefreshingViews
      @RefreshingViews  3 місяці тому +1

      Thank you! No guiding - as you say short exposures avoid the need for it.

    Great shots Mark, no satellite trails in any pictures?

    • @RefreshingViews
      @RefreshingViews  10 місяців тому +1

      Oh there were plenty but you can stack with sigma-something and that looks across the stack and removes one-off satellite trails.

    You should try an ASI AIR plus mark, once you’ve tried it they’ll be no going back

    • @RefreshingViews
      @RefreshingViews  10 місяців тому

      Yeah, my friend Lawrence loves his ASI Air ua-cam.com/video/qrCrszV0R2A/v-deo.html. The only problem is that you are tied into ZWO products (which isn't necessarily a bad thing!).
