It would excel at fast narrowband, if you go for a cooled mono camera (like the ASI1600MM-C), but a filter drawer system (try Teleskop-Services) would be needed to avoid a filter wheel blocking signal. Add a set of high speed narrowband filters and you have it all. An exciting project for sure.

You might be onto something there Glen. May look into that option. BTW I undeleted your post. It was constructive
