Yes, it's correctable to a certain extent. I worked for me with the Tarantula but not for the Helix. I probably did something wrong.
My eyes are set on a different filter set where blue and green filters overlap the OIII band.
Narrowband is just what it says...narrower pass bands than either RGB filters or visual filters. There's no black magic involved...it just allows us to hone in on certain emissions, especially from the city. It's not a bad idea to wait it out and get to grips with it first, as narrow band filters can be pricey, but equip yourself with the slots in the EFW to save having to change or supplement it later (this is my ONLY regret with the ZWO 1600 setup, but I bought mine before the 8-position EFW was available)
