Zooming to the planets while pushing the limits with the William Optics GT71 refractor telescope, 4x Kenko teleconverters & Canon R camera. Jupiter, Saturn & Mars. It’s not the greatest quality while using the teleconverters but still I wanted to give it a go.

5:54pm to 6:30om, Friday Nov 6th, 2020, NE Ohio (USA), SW & ESE Skies, 53°F (12°C)

Telescope Footage Filmed through the Canon R Mirrorless Camera
Recorded onto the Atomos Ninja Flame 7” Monitor/Recorder in 1080p - Upscaled to 4k
Stacking Done in Pipp, AutoStakkert, & Registax through Parallels for Mac
Photos Processed in Lightroom Classic
Everything put together in Final Cut Pro X
