Help with planetary imaging
Hi, I live on the Gold Coast and want to do planetary imaging from my backyard but want some advice on whic 1.25" filters to purchase. My gear is...
1. Celestron Edge HD 9.25
2. ZWO 290mc
3. Az-EQ6 mount
I have been doing some reading and seems aperture of 300mm or more is desired, I have (234mm'ish) and if influences which IR pass to buy. Also which planet you are targeting requires a different IR pass bandwidth. I was also further confused when coming across Red + IR pass filter (R + IR), are they the same as a IR pass, totally different or two filters stacked.
So my question is, which IR Pass or R+IR Pass filter/s is/are best to purchase? I am sold on Baader UV Pass, just would like the advice of those with far more experience and expertise!
Many thanks for your time!
Clear skies,
Brendan.
