I think you scared many into not answering because of the scope of your questions and depth of
the answers!! I think what you are seeing is stelar dust, and remnants of the "Big Bang", plus
a few aliens!!... All done kidding.... Ok... I have a true feeling you are for one thing... ahead of
the game... as some seem to not even be able to get it to work... I do hope you understand that
for one thing.. the CCD imaging chip is not nearly as sensitive as your eye... most think it sees better
because of the ability to "turn up the gain" for one thing. This is not true.. It could also be said...
"Turn up the distortion"... A good way to explain that is... I have a hearing problem... Many ask..
Why not get hearing aids?... The hearing I have is very distorted... turning up the volume results in
turning up the distortion... Understand?... Another point... Most images shown are a result of many
single images stacked together... adding detail and brightness to result in a usable image...
Getting a lunar image is a great thing!!.. The brightness of the moon makes it easy to see on a laptop
screen... But looking in the direction of Jupiter... nothing is seen on the laptop screen!!.. Your eye is
much more able to adjust to the low light and resolve an image than the CCD chip is... I can explain an
easy way to help get sharp images of an object you can't see on the laptop screen if you are still
interested and following this thread.. and have not given up...
God Bless!!

Here is a picture of Saturn I took 5 years ago, about 6 months after getting the LPI.

Is Nebulosity supported in Windows 7 and are there drivers for the DSI 3 pro for Nebulosity and Windows 7.
Also, does the lpi work with Nebulosity?

Nebulosity/Windows 7. Not sure here, I mainly use it with an XP laptop, but have used it with a Vista laptop. It does run under Mac OSX.
Nebulosity/DSI 3 pro
From the nebulosity website, among a host of other cameras:
Meade DSI, DSI Pro, DSI II, DSI II Pro, DSI III and DSI III Pro.
I have only used it with the DSI II Color and a Canon EOS digital rebel XTi
I do not believe Nebulosity supports the LPI, at least it's not listed under supported cameras. Probably more a driver issue, as the LPI is not really supported under Vista/Windows 7
The picture was taken on a night of exceptional seeing. The image is a stack of 50 .005 second exposures. I used nebulosity to focus and capture, AviStack to combine the exposures, and nebulosity for final image adjustment.
