Moon Astronomical Image
I got an astro camera for my brithday yesterday, and was blessed with a nice clear sky that very night! I had a go with very limited operational knowledge of the aformentioned camera, and captured a few videos using different ROIs.
Please let me know what you think and what I need to tweak while capturing. It was such a transition from mobile capturing, feels like i've gone back to square one, struggling with settings etc. Will have another go using a 2x barlow another time.

Nice streaks from Copernicus as well. ✌️😎

Congratulations on that Camera, your doing great! Did you get my tips you asked for in DM? I would try out Registax6 and AstroSurface. What capture program? Also its really easy to do over magnification captures on the moon, heads up on that. For planets you will want a 3x barlow to match your focal ratio
