If the DMK mono is used without filters can it be used in a similar maner as the AVI capture and processed in Registax as the Toucam
it an be used but will be mono

If I had a DMK mono and a red filter, as above, is the image still captured as AVI and processed in Registax as I asked above?
process as a avi but it will still be mono but dimmer than no filters as you have removed the blue and green colors.

the DMK can be used for extended exposures if you wish but so can the Toucam.

the color versions have less resolution due to the Bayer array ( red green blue filter) over the chip which then spreads the message and averages it to produce a true colour image.

if you want to produce a good color image of jupiter with the Mono DMK you will need a filter wheel and RGB filters (add 600 dollars)

the moon is more or less B/W so shooting in mono will give more detail

couple of pics to give you some ideas all shot at same scale as far as i recall.
