Description

Reaching the conclusion my RGBL filter set is fine with the 8300 chip but not with the 834 chip camera when used with the SW120 with Riccardi reducer. I think I need instead filters with a more aggressive UV cutoff. Should be able get comparison shots soon.

This image is a quick 4.25 hour look at the DeerLick group at 840mm with 120mm scope. Skies were only so so. Appears blue bloat is less with the native SW F/7 flattener than I am seeing with the Riccardi reducer with this camera. I am always drawn to the little Stephans Quintet in bottom left.
