Planetary imaging - Mars madness edition.
Here are my webcam and CCD images of the planets. I started out with my SBIG ST-4, but it wasn't as easy to use as a webcam for planetary imaging. Initially, I started with a SAC-IV Quickcam based imager. I have since added a FireWire-based iBot from OrangeMicro and a USB ToUcam Pro from Philips. I use my 600 MHz iBook with BTV or BTV Pro (OEM version for the iBot) to capture a QuickTime movie in Mac OS X. Initially, with the SAC-IV, I used the stock QuickCam software from Logitech, but I have since gotten the IOXperts Mac OS X drivers for the USB cams. Since my telescopes have relatively short focal length, I often use a barlow lens to get more magnification. I have also started using an IR blocking filter with my webcams.
