Combined of 130/600 frames stacked with Registax3. Further processing with Photoshop (histogram and color balance).
I tried imaging this time with eyepiece projection method. Results asre quite good - in fact first time in these images the Cassini division can be seen so clearly.
In the second image (Image 2) size has been enlarged 1.5-times with Registax 2.
Image 3 has been taken with higher gain settings and focal reducer. Could see 6 moons easily in preview screen. Not bad, I think.
