Description

First target shot with the new Askar Colour Magic D1 & D2 Duo Narrowband Filters (Ha/OIII & SII/OIII) and the ASI533MC Pro.

Quite pleased with the result and the amount of Oxygen III that I was able to capture compared to my old L-Extreme filter. However, I'm pretty sure my sample is nowhere near the 6nm bandwidth claimed by Askar.
Processing in Pixinsight took some time adjusting my regular workflow however in the end it was easier then expected (quite similar to Mono I was told). Looking forward to more clear nights and new targets, eventually with my newly ordered ASI2600MC Pro camera.
