No...the extra saturation of the blue stars, while not accurate, is an intentional tweak by yours truly.

I think mono-CMOS might be and easier/better choice for deep sky...very much so if you want to add narrow band data.

That said, while my new STXL runs rings around the QHY OSC (and cost 6x as much...) for deep sky, I bought the camera for planetary imaging (where it excels).

This was a bit fun to test the waters. I think the result is actually quite good....remarkable really...as the camera costs way less than many "big brand" filter sets, let alone the rest.
