Over at flat last couple of nights and telescope set up, Friday night was masses of clouds couple of seconds between clouds and moon. Last night was a bit clearer. Had the ed80/ with the new ovl focuser and skywatcher 0.85 focal reducer and hooked up to sharpcap,, either bad seeing or a bad camera for the moon, Image quality was very poor to be fair I think it was pretty turbulent as the focus was coming and going. Took a few snapshots via sharpcap and stuck them on Photoshop and just couldn't pull out a decent image.
Sky was still bright and was losing my fov so struggled. Once moon was out of view,, there was nothing visible,, At least it was some scope time

I found something similar with mine when doing Solar video, I found I was getting a better screen image when using the mallincam extreme or samsung p2000 the Zwo just didn't seem to have enough contrast and the image just looked flat and not as much definition.
Next time try running the files through AutoStakkert hopefully that should help

Thought you were dead mate 😂🙂lol
If my batteries on my dslr had been charged,i would have binned the zwo,, know exactly what you mean about the image,, not impressed,, as most know I mostly do lunar work and like John I used the good old modded Sammy and the images Have more warmth and depth ,, think I will stick with the dslr ,, Anyone else feel this is the case with zwo camera's on the moon
