Hi Roger,
I’m using an STC Duo Filter which is a dual narrow band filter. Once white balanced it is an absolute game changer. Not cheap at just over $500 landed but I think it’s worth every penny. Another IIS member, Chris V, has had his longer. You should see some of the images he produces using it, they’re stunning. I am imaging in bortle 8 Melbourne skies and I can do 5 min subs at ISO 400 through both an 8” f/4 Newt and a C9.25 SCT with sky brightness of well under 1% !
