Nice results there despite the challenging conditions, Maurits.

Good to hear the SolarSpectrum is performing well.

For the moment it's searching to get the best possible focus distance, trial and error ...

When I use the SolarSpectrum Ha filter I only have 2 ms exposure time (80% histogram fill), with the Quark and I need about 12 - 15 ms exposure time.
With both I use the same setup: ASI174MM, 0.5x reducer, DERF.
