Colour like this is very common with CLS filters. When I use my Svybony CLS my subs are bright blue. You can deal with it by aligning the rgb levels in photoshop.

Awesome. Nice read. Kudos to you on your observing.

I have this camera and it has allowed me to get some awesome images. I love it. That being said, the lack of a built in intervalometer is incredibly annoying as it requires me to wire the camera to a laptop via a long usb cable or use an android app to set intervals. my suggestion is to spend a little bit more and get a camera with an intervalometer. Other than that issue, great camera for the price. No other complaints from me

That is a really impressive image considering you are in a B9 area. Consider me amazed. -
Bortle class 5 ..so where next

I’m in similar skies to you and have had very good success with the Triangulum Galaxy, the rosette nebula, the North America nebula (although that was hard to process) and the dumbbell nebula. I only failed to get nothing at all from the iris nebula, the heart nebula and one other I can’t remember now. I recently bought a cheap Svybony CLS filter and although it makes processing a bit harder, it definitely helps record more details, especially with nebulae. Good luck! -
I don’t have a solution with regards to polar aligning, but as for not using a laptop, I use an app called camera connect and control that uses the cameras WiFi. I stupidly bought a dslr without an inbuilt intervalometer and this app works a treat. If I have my setup at the far end of the garden, then I just keep the phone near it. cheers

Hi all, I own this guidescope https://www.modernas...guidescope-kit/ ...and would like to use it to target DSOs for astrophotography. I bought it to use as a guide scope, but I don't always guide. I tried fitting an eyepiece to it and it doesn't screw in, although a strip of gaffer tape will fix that. So, any suggestions for adapting it to a viewfinder that will be mounted on my DSLR? Should I use a particular eyepiece? I know reticule eyepieces are usually suggested. Has anyone else done what I want to do?. I should add that I usually use a red dot finder gl
