20131114 Moon

Tele Vue Ranger with 2x or 5x, Lumenera Lu070M at low gain.  Transparency 7/10, seeing 2-3/10, tracked with GOTO Mark-X.

Two frames stitched using autostitch, 2344 (GMT+8), with 2x barlows:


One more taken with 5x at 2348 (GMT+8), picked ~700 frames out of 3000, pushing gain to medium to allow faster speed to freeze seeing, most detail were still washed out:



I've pulled out my 4mm to watch for a while, the adjustable eye-cup is effective.  This is not an easy to use eyepiece, however, but not a problem to experienced observer.
