A quick test with the Coronado Solar Max III telescope and a ZWO ASI290MC camera. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXrfKF0JyMI This was about 30 minutes before Sunset and the sky was hazy. The first part is video footage and the last part is a stacked image taken from 200 still frames. I did not have time to tweak the telescope for best visuals today but we can already see the prominences and some surface detail in the stacked image. I will pick up s 4K astrophotography camera next week and with clear skies and more time to tune the telescope it should look much sharper next time.
