halpha sun on June 3

Post by stef41 »

good morning,

nearly 6h non stop on the sun today :) the hard disk is full!
We're starting with the "still" images, while waiting for the animations that will arrive over the next few days.

it was a special filament day today! :)

At the fs60 with sm40 double stack, BF10, glasspath x1.7 and zwo178mm around 10:30 UT

Then we move on to the Mak102/1325 with the quark combo chromo, where I've replaced the Explore Scentific tele-extender x2 with a powermate x2.5 (normally not telecentric).
Well, I think it works pretty well. Even when I switched to f/d 32, I found that the visuals were brighter than with the ES!

in image it looks like this with the zwo178mm in binning 2 (and the ADC, really great for removing all interference!)
