Saturn reworked picture adjusting white balans

My previous reworked pictures of Saturn had some issues with colour setting. Again I reworked my pictures using AstroSurface U4 for stacking and sharpening and CS4 for adjusting white balans (RGB adjustment).

The result is more bright and the image has more colours.

Lights: 82fps 3000 frames (via SSD Samsung T7), flats 

Software: SharpCap 4, AS3! (10%), CS4

Setting in AS3!

Some nasty circles around the sundisk appeared when min brightness was set on "0". After adjusting to 15 the circles dissapeared.

Actual Frames per Second (FPS)

SSD Samsung T7 (2Tb)

I'm using a regular Hard Disk of my PC to capture my astro images. For the Sun and Planets my camera's typicaly goes up and beyond 80fps. But after capturing for a few seconds, the frames per second drop. I always thought the rate would keep up in the back but  I found out that this was not realy true. 

This morning I did a test when capturing the Sun with ASI290MM:

When using an external SSD (Samsung SSD T7) the actual frame rate = 82,1097 fps

When using my existing Hard Disk on my PC, I start with 82 fps but my actual rate drops to 27.0601fps.

Conclusion: be aware that capturing time is depending on your set up eg. type of hard disk, connection (eg. USB2, 3), ....

Some images of the Sun in H-alpha from this morning.

Imaging was done with an external SSD resulting in an avg frames per second of 81.
