Satellites of Saturn new
      #940599 - 05/04/06 01:19 AM Attachment (18 downloads)

Hi all,
Hyperion at mag 14.3 was in the field but I could not bring it out. Has anyone been able to image this satellite with an unmodified ToUcam?
Sats- 600fr,1/25,5fps,84%gain,f-10
Disk- 300fr,1/100,5fps, 40% gain, f-10
740K, no filter.
Regards,
Jim

a very nice composition, Jim! Saturn looks nice in there too!
I didn't manage to capture Hyperion with the 14" i can use. darn thing is too close to the planet. I have seen images of Hyperion taken with a unmodded toucam though.
