Much time saved or double the data for the same exposure time. Have you found it good on emission nebula?

Thanks Fred
The L Extreme and my 2600MC are a certainly a game changer for me over the past year imaging emission nebula as prior to this I used a stock Canon 600D DSLR for 3 years or so and didn’t even bother to image after a first quarter moon due to poor detail and excessive noise
Moon or no Moon it performs incredibly well to bring out fine detail and nebulosity.The only drawback with these OSC NB filters is that they can cause some minor Star halo and colours are not so natural as with straight colour RGB. I use Startools Compose to create some OSC Bi colour renditions which has worked out Ok
