IMHO astro imagers are really only astro image processors.
One only has to have a look at the many different colours too Eta Carina and M42 to see what I mean
Most of the colours are only representations and and not the true colours.
A Big percentage of imagers haven't looked through a telescope in years,and a lot don't know what the object they are imaging looks like in an eyepiece.
One only has too watch the beginners thread to see this.
First question?
What telescope can I get to take pictures?
Not what can I see in the eyepiece.
They should not be called Telescopes,but big Telephoto lenses.
Cheers
