I think the theory suggests to use smaller pixels with OSC if you want to maintain resolution. De-bayering involves estimating missing values based on surrounding pixels, thus with the same pixel size mono camera should normally yield higher resolution (detail) than OSC.

Thanks Slawomir. I appreciate the feedback. I've acually been using a Hutech IDAS for a luminance filter, and I used to use it in front of my RGB to pretty good effect given the amount of LP I face. I suppose it would work about the same. A straight luminance filter probably wouldn't greatly increase exposure (I hope). I guess time will tell. Big pain to need to change out the wheel or filter with a camera change which otherwise would be rather easy,
I understand the logic of using smaller pix but I wonder if given the usual seeing there would be any real benefit. The price for a possible benefit would be lower sensitivity and even smaller wells. Worth it?
