Logitech Fusion Webcam
August 20, 2006 - Cherry Springs Dark Sky Park
On Sunday, August 20, sunspot 904 was poised at the Sun's western limb before disappearing over the sun's edge. A Modified Logitech Fusion webcam was used for imaging with an Orion ED80 refractor at prime focus with a 60mm Coronado H-Alpha filter on an LXD55 mount. 17 frames of a 30 minute AVI file at 1280 X960 resolution and 5 fps were stacked using Registax 3.
