I've been keen to get into narrowband imaging for a while but I've finally saved (read: sold stuff and got tax refund) a little spare cash so I'm now ready to dive in. The setup I have in mind is:
An Atik 320E

A filter wheel

1.25" Ha, OIII and SII filters

This will be used on my ED80 which I think will match with the small pixel size of that sensor pretty well? And I've gone with this camera and the 1.25" filters to keep the cost to under $2000 (which I know is not much for this kind of setup).
I've read a bunch of threads on here about advice for CCDs etc and I think I'm on the right track but I just wanted to see if anyone had any alternative suggestions or advice (or warnings!)
Also is there an Australian dealer for Atik cameras? Or somewhere better to buy from?
Thanks
