Mike. It's too early to say and last night's conditions were so bad I think it would be unfair to try and rate them at this early stage.

The seeing was terrible and there was a lot of atmospheric moisture which would have had an impact on how individual filters performed.

However, based on last night's session, they appear not to be parfocal, which is disappointing. Also, I was required to perform the same adjustments in gain to correct the histogram

They do, however, appear to be a little brighter compared with my Astronomiks which I sold to purchase these, although similar in that Green is the brightest, followed by Red and Blue.

Having said this, I am reserving judgment until I get a night of good seeing and transparency. The filters may perform differently in better conditions.

Now...where's that good seeing
