Description

Another night with mediocre seeing and hence an opportunity to do some tests.

This time I wanted to see how the ST80 short achromat performs with the Proplanet IR642 IR PASS filter, with a thought at using it to image galaxies in the future.

It looks like the doublet works well with the 642-842 nm bandpass filter, and indeed the definition of moon crater is better than the one obtained with the same scope and the IR CUT filter, that is full spectrum < 750 nm.
