Agree and thanks John. I tried Venus again on Jan 18th (or the 17th) this time using eyepiece projection and the Canon Rebel T5. This camera is supported by the digiCamControl program which allows a live view and good exposure/ISO controls. Even so the result was only fair. Some chromatic aberration and fuzziness was present on images. The attached was enhanced in Photoshop Elements. The crescent shape of Venus is now evident. Over next 2 months Venus will be very interesting with a rapidly enlarging diameter and falling % illumination.
