Thanks Guys! Great to be imaging again - in any capacity.

Looks like the colour balance of those filters is pretty spot on straight out of the camera.. perhaps a touch light on the red channel, but close enough I reckon!

Yep Alex. The balance is surprisingly good - given that this is the first time I've actually had the pleasure of using a filter wheel and filters. I had visions of taking yonks to find how to balance them before I got any result at all. Looks like 1.5:1:1:1 will do fine until I take more objects to tune that a bit. I agree, the red could do with a tiny tad more, but that's not something I couldn't effect in Photoshop.

Clear skies would be nice. I could then start to get used to a relatively low-QE device and see where it takes me. In the meantime - all great fun!
