I doubt the throughput would be as high as you would get with high transmission lrgb filter sets, but it is a trade off that would be worth making in certain circumstances imho.

Anyway, there is no harm in putting the idea to the ESO guys.

At the very least, they will no doubt take you/us more seriously if we develop a more rigorous protocol with respect to our data acquisition.

Nice work btw.

Thanks Clive.
I'll pass on your question when I get a response to the latest image submission.
