Hi Derek,
Great to see you here !! How is it going man ?

It is very good for prominences as well but not with the x4 power mate. For prominences I have to stop down the scope to 80mm and use a x2.5 PM. This way I still have the scope with f/30, which is required for proper operation of the filter, but I get a much wider FOV, an appropriate sample rate and less light absortion. I have been capturing some really dim prominences with the system setup like this.

Best Regards,

Fernando
