Todays Activity and a Little Flaring

Captured a small amount of flaring today and also tried out the 0.5 Prostar Reducer for a quick full disc pic(Dave my biggest problem is getting the settings right on the Gstarex to avoid the Limb darkening) Also I do notice that even with the Pressure Tuner it is difficult to get the whole thing on Band. Which when you consider that all this stuff relys on angles makes sense.What we need is a 1" chip with a 120frame/s capture rate.PS on the Disc South is up.
