Re: [APML] AVI+JPG Saturn occultation



Stunning work, Lorenzo!!

I tried to do something similar using my new SBIG STV attached to a 10" LX200,
which belongs to a friend of mine. The seeing was terrible, but considering that
this was actually first light with the camera I'm quite satisfied with the
results. I hope to be able to process and share the results soon.

Best regards,
Arne
