halpha sun on 22 April

Post by stef41 »

Hello to all,

a slightly milky sky and quite a bit of wind in my area but still, a great weather to shoot our star :)
At the fs60 with his sm40 double stack, BF10, glasspath x1.7 and zwo178mm on staradventurer around 10:15 UT

Very good, Stephane.

I thought strong wind was not good for imaging ??

Keep it up.

Stephane,
Beautiful imaging with your SM40s.
Do you have any details available on how you attach your glasspath to your BF10?
Many thanks,
David

especially with the little staradventurer: the slightest breeze shakes everything up! ;)

the glasspath is not in the BF10
it is directly at the entrance of the camera (in the black body of the zwo178mm which unscrews)

Sincerely,
