When the seeing is good...solar refractor 228mm

Post by sulcis2000 »

Hi all,

yesterday I tried to shot our Sun with the help of a fair/good and my solar refractor truss tube 228 mm F8
For Halfa imaging I used a Daystar Quark Chromosphere version (7.750mm focal lenght)
For H-Calcium wavelength I used a Daystar Quark Calcium H-Line version & a Barlow Powermate 4X with refractor stopped at 150mm (7.200mm focal lenght)
For White Light imaging I used a Baader Herschel Wedge cool ceramic with a 2" Continuum filter and a IRCUT Filter.

Best regards

Ale
