The sky was transparent and seeing was poor, getting worse as the night went on. I imaged Mars with two cameras, an Olympus C2020Z digital camera and a Philips Vesta Pro webcam. Sequential Mode on the Olympus was used to take many images quickly. Images were taken in SQ2 normal quality (size 640X480). Eyepiece used was an 8.8mm Meade Ultrawide and Televue 2 inch Big Barlow with the Olympus camera zoom lens at full zoom.
A 4X Powermate was used with the Philips Vesta Pro webcam.
