Yes I think the Baader filters are the better.

A pair of wonderful images. I don't see much between the two cameras.
Looking forward to seeing more like this.
Well done. Thanks.

I used to be a bit heavy handed with saturation now I hold myself back a bit as I got a lot of comments about it in the past. Also there was a problem with the blue on the right side having a hard ending.
Both the Apogee U16M and FLI Proline 16803 are magnificent cameras.
FLI has better standard and faster cooling, faster downloads, a better shutter, slightly cleaner electronics but it is 1.5lbs heavier. The Apogee looks better, has the option of the DO9 body upgrade for US$2000 which cools the hardest -75C below ambient and takes 30 minutes to do it, it has a built in mask to reduce reflections (the Proline may as well - not sure). Either are a great camera. It was mainly the extra cooling that is fast that was the main selling point for me as I want -35C all year round and I should be able to do that with the Proline.
Greg.
