I'd be interested to see the results. The UV/IR Astronomik filter is reported as having a 97% transmission rating. I would imagine the MC would have similar values.
You're using focusmax right? Use the acquire star function. It will plate solve to find a suitable star, slew and center it, then begin to auto focus routine. Once focuser is in the critical focus zone, the telescope is then slewed back to the target. No brainer. I've used it on narrow FOV's before on my previous scope - C11 (~2800mm). Works fine.
Not sure about CCDSoft and CCDCommander for filter offsets. I'm using ACP which supports it. I know MaximDL also supports it, but you need to configure it manually. In ACP you simply perform and inital focus run through all filters (even if parfocal), ACP then calculates the difference based on the clear filter. Thus, you only focus once on the clear filter, then all other filters will reach focus, even if not parfocal.
