Dude ... Try moving you finger off the lens next time you hit the record button. It was blocking my view of Venus.

So what is the total magnification?

I'm getting a FugiFilm 14M camera with a 30X optical zoom, and I figure I can get something close to that.

The total magnification I was using here with the eyepiece was about 400x to 500x. I'm not really sure.

Venus is nothing special through a telescope because of its thick clouds and thick atmosphere.

Ok, I understand how Venus will pass between the earth and the sun June 4-5 but I don't understand this eclipse mode. Could you explain the "angle of the sun hitting surface" idea a bit more. Thanks, and oh, I have a little thread going on Venus too.

Re: Venus Through My Telescope(Must See!!)
I tried once again to get a focused shot of 'the big bright star' aka Venus/Nibiru/whatever but it seems to be spinning/rolling? Is this right? Should it be? I can focus on the moon easily but can't for the life of me get a good pic of this. This is as good as I could get last night & the moon 2 nights ago

Venus?

You also have to realize I was using 400x zoom here. From that weird picture of venus that the person posted was probably a low and crappy 20x zoom or something.
