thanks ivor appreciated,that looks good for 5 mins per filter,def need more pi knowledge

Thank you very much Ivor i think youve hit the nail on the head with various comments,im using the c8 edge now for a while instead of my ts optics,which doesnt help and the sombrero was very low just above a bungalow and maybe just below my obsy wall,add that to a few low clouds and my lack of pixinsight skills adds to something im not going to achieve,just done a very quick process with just 3x5 mins worth of subs LRGB with NGC 4565 and got this so dont think my processing is a million miles off(for me anyway)??.Any thoughts?Once again thank you

hi after struggling with pi for a long time decided to start at the basics do i have anything missing from a basic workflow thanks

well this is my poor attempt after 3 hours processing Image11.tif

Thanks again still problems with my pi processing skills(or lack off),still trying to find my workflow

ive always imaged at 300 secs per sub but how do you know what is the perfect length for your subs please

hi can anyone process my master lights with pixinsight,to make sure they are ok thanks,im useless at processing and my image was terrible ,need to know im going in the right direction https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qg3ognp3ff8saam/AABb7QqGpdVCcfpMQuizPnVWa?dl=0

just need to find a LS60 at a reasonable price now thanks guys😬

in fact just tried them and they are not working now,did the ini update you suggested in a previous post a while ago and seem to be working now,first time ive tried for a few weeks,thanks....really need to try having a go with different data but worried about messing my working system up ,any suggestions on what would be the easiest to have a go at,does EUMETCastView process any data i am likely to be receiving ,cheers Alan

great image alan,very reluctant to try anything apart from my channel 2 reception 😬

hi all apart from the price does anyone have any comments on these 3 for imaging thanks

some great images on your site,could you tell me what you used for the first image dated SOL IN H⍺ – 29 AUGUST 2021,thats the kind of image i would love to capture thanks

Thanks Hughsie i see you have both,but what is the lunt 50 like compared to your lunt ls60 please?

Hi Alan an eye opener as always thanks for sharing ,what software are you using for the processing,cheers

awesome thanks for sharing

bearing in mind i have a c8 edge and ts optics quad at 600mm which way would you go and why ,thanks

just wondered if anything else is needed if i use a daystar quark on my C8 or ts optics scope apart from the camera ,any more filters etc thanks

Hi all just fancied trying to image the sun with my c8 edge and 0.7x reducer, just wondered what the difference is behind the two brands of solar filter sheets please and any recommendations for making my own for the c8 thanks

let us know how you get on👍

hi ive attached it to scope via the nosecone and also at the back of my imaging train where my ccd goes with similar results,if i adjust to make the blue circle ok the red will be out,not sure which is most important ,what scope you using it with?

hi just used the electronic ocal collimator on my c8 edge ive finished with this collimation i think the collimation is ok i have the red circle(outer) ok ,the green middle circle ok but the smaller blue one seems out which you cannot adjust ,any advice appreciated thanks

not quite need a 2" female to 48mm male,but thanks

just looking to reduce the back of my celestron 0.7x reducer which is 2" to a 48mm thread (male) but cannot find one do they exist thanks

Just wondered if anyone had any experince with the Ocal Electronic Collimator,just find it too fiddly doing it in the dark,thanks guys
