Equipment:

Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer / Sky-Watcher Evostar 72ED (72/420mm) / ZWO EFW / Baader LRGB filter set / Barlow 3x / ZWO ASI174MM / ZWO ASI120MM-S

Description:

Atmospheric seeing is crucial in obtaining good results. That evening we got temperature below 20 and steady air, allowing me to obtain great recordings of the two planets! With such a small telescope (72mm aperture) it's incredible to get such fine details. I tried both of my planetary astrocameras. ASI174MM has bigger pixels (5.86um), which is why the scale is smaller compared to ASI120MM-S which has got smaller pixels (3.75um). But the fidelity with the first camera is higher and it was easier to process. Check it out full size on Flickr: https://flic.kr/p/2mewxbf
