shot with a new camera

Manuel and I chatted briefly on the phone. He asked what I thought of his latest email message. What message? He said he had sent over a shot of Saturn. I had seen a new Saturn image on Facebook. He emailed again. Taken with the new DFK camera. Said the collimation was off. I thought the image was good. I thought the detail and colour was decent. The noise was not too bad. The C ring was detectable, polar region visible, and some of the temperate belt visible. Looked like a great start.
