I wanted to test out the Antlia Tri Band Filter with longer exposures so decided to do 5 min exposures on Rho Ophiuchi since its such a dark filter. I would say you could even do longer than 5 min. The colors came out deeper in saturation than say the L-Pro which I love but dont appreciuate the halos it has on big bright stars.
