Re filters

The filters I have found that really enhance Jupiters belts and festoons and GRS, are a light green, or even a light blue ...esp in an achromat and scopes with large central obstructions.

More so, in larger apertures, as Jupiter is so bright that detail is hard to see, unless a higher magnification than usual is used.

Fringe Killers are also very good in an Achromat...And I've also used my Astronomik CLS, to telling effect on Jupiter and Mars.

Excellent guide to filters by Brian Ventrudo here
