I ordered one last year and can say that it’s a real game changer for me, here in the backyard under urban light pollution. Even with the full moon up, I can image 240sec 80mm f/6 and get meaningful results. My camera is Baader modded and colour rendition is pretty much perfect. The stars are super tight and the contrast on nebulousity is amazing. The clip in filter is not as well built as the Astronomiks but it it works. I tried the UHC and the CLS filters prior but this one stands out. I have tried to process as NB’ s with channel splitting but haven’t had time to figure out how to do it properly. Anyway, even without it, the gain for me is remarkable and I keep the STC permanently in the camera. I’m sure a dedicated Astro cam with 3nm Astrodons put my setup in its place but until I upgrade, this is the way to go.
