I was scratching my head trying to work out how you got such great colour from two narrow band filters, so thanks for the summary of how you process NB data

hope the problem with the NJP is not too hard to repair - B** annoying when a trusted bit of kit goes down.

be nice if Sony would make the 24MP version of the 694, but since they making over a billion image sensors each year, our tiny market is probably not a high priority.
Yeah how good would one of those be ..as I said I would just be happy with say a 25mm X 20mm version, would be perfect...would still be within the AG12's fully illuminated field but I would need bigger filters again though....oh yeah! which I already have in the FLI filterwheel...hmmm?

Hope to get out to the Obs Saturday with a new stainless grub screw and good quality allen key

Good to hear and funny how some objects just never appeal, I feel the same way about a couple of galaxies like The Meat Hook for example
