more solar work 11 January 2014 - DMK41 on AR1944

[h0ughy (David)]

back to my trusty DMK41 where i used it on white light and some Ha work. I took over 60gig of data this morning and its a pain to process - very long. had to use the DMK for everything after i broke my ASI120MM

first was with the 127ed and baader solar wedge, the other two were with the Lunt 60 single stack

added a quick mosaic

Lovely detail and granulation in the WL image Dave, although it looks like you may have lost some detail in the umbral regions – they look too black on my screen?

Is the ASI damage recoverable or are you back with the DMK full time now?

Cheers

as for the ASI - not sure - may work fine as a guide cam but not for planet and solar work. the DMK is just not sensitive enough to give a better dynamic range, to get the granulation i set it so i could see it on my monitor, but that came at a loss for some of the detail of the sunspot - i know that live and learn
