Description

A comparison of two images obtained in sequence with two different filters and moderately good seeing.

25% of the frames were considered good with the full spectrum video, while 30% of the R-IR showed the same level of quality (according to Autostakkert and visual inspection), so the R-IR filter was able to somewhat limit the effects of turbulence.

Nevertheless the full spectrum image is brighter even if recorded at higher fps and probably also more detailed.

The seeing was more like 2,5 out of 5, rather than 3 on a scale of 5, so not too bad and hence probably the more light collected with the IR CUT filter outweighs the modest improvement of seeing granted by the R-IR Proplanet filter.
