Telescope video of Maginus and Clavius lunar craters.

Atmosphere quality was satisfactory during video recording. Some turbulence are observed, but there are moments of great clarity.
Craters seen here are  Maginus (163 km) și Clavius (225 km).

Video captures images are in this article.
Registax images are in this article.

The video was also used in Registax program to process images with higher quality, but also for simple video captures.

The video was made with the camera mounted on the telescope, to be more exact on the telescope eyepiece. To protect the telescope from vibrations, I used a tracking motor from Lacerta, and thus the image was more stable. 

However, even with this tracking device for celestial bodies, there were vibrations of the telescope tube, causing the image to be slightly unstable. For this, I used the video stabilization option in Sony Vegas editing software, so the video was 100% correct on this issue.
