I have imaged Saturn, the moon, M13, & M22 with pleasing results. All imaging was done with a Stella Cam3 video camera. One hundred frames from a 20 second exposure were stacked in the processing of each final image. The hardest part in using the capture device was to remember to save the images after completing the exposure.
Favorite viewing location:??My own backyard
Favorite object to observe:??Great Orion nebula
Pros: simple to set up, good image capture capability., software compatible with maxim dlpro
Cons: the usb plug in has too much weight on it.
Yes, I recommend this product!
