Phew!
Just got back from my second home, namely Andrews Comms (just too darn close to home - while I was there I met Mark from Bankstown [forgot the sign on name Mark, sorry]) and after spending 2 hours bending the ears of Luke, Cameron and Lee in between heaps of customers and phone calls, I decided to risk it all (marriage that is) and buy a Ba'ader UHC-S High-transmission Nebula filter 1.25". I was going to splash out a bit more for the OIII, but this one seemed to be what I was after.
These guys are fantastic, knowledge is great, advice is second to none and the prices are unbeatable! Also, I never felt like they were trying to get rid of me, lucky I had some things to do or I probably would still be there and be about $2K poorer after discussing the Promak150-180 on GOTO. DAMN, I need to win lotto.
No, I don't work there, but hang on........maybe that's not such a bad idea!
This will hopefully sort out my contrast and help me find some nebulas I have been looking for and bring out some more details on Jupiter and Saturn.
Fingers crossed, I will keep you posted on its performance with my 5 inch Skywatcher.
Thanks for reading.
