Saturn and Overcompensating

As with Jupiter, I relied on all of my past experiences for the preliminary camera settings, specifically for ISO and exposure.

Another benefit, I believe, of the new camera is that I can finally process a Drizzle in Autostakkert.

A non-photographer taking pictures in a hobby he knows little about, and then writing about it all in a venue not his forte!

But then I thought, what if I chose only two of the videos instead of the full three?

As I had not filmed Saturn since last year, I was very worried that the results would not be good.

My astrophotography journal came in very handy this week as I put my telescope and camera and lenses back into full service.

What is neat about lining all three images side-by-side is that they were taken with the same telescope and same equipment setup.

Though I missed taking a picture of the Full Moon on March 1st, I did get this picture the following night of the early Waning Moon.

On this very cold but very clear night, the aging Waning Moon shown brightly from the East.

It will be a challenge to get the ISO and exposures right, since Saturn is fainter than Jupiter.
