Re color I frankly didn't play with it at all. It's the absolute accurate cyan that came out of the balanced histogram.
Re the chip scope combination - it provides a very good for between pixel size and theoretical avg point size (5.4 micron and 6 micron, respectively), getting to the super resolution of 0.54 arcsec per pixel. This enables taking absolutely everything that the seeing can give. Imagine the pillars of creation image was processed at drizzle x 2 and then BROUGHT DOWN to 0.69 arcsec per pixel...
So if you have good seeing and good optics I'd warmly recommend going for this combination. Anything else will put you at the risk of undesampling - not a bright prospect given the capex and opex involved :-)))
Re chip size - it gives a handsome FOV for anything interesting to shoot at this scale, so very satisfied there too...
Hope this answers and ... All electronic devices must now be turned off

That is certainly something to think about Harel. Might have to get some adapters made up and give this idea a try. Seeing results from a scope of similar scale gives me a lot to contemplate. Thanks for the detailed response.
