+Graham Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I have been experimenting this afternoon with an old type QHY 5 in the Solar scope. I have found by adding an IR block filter and an HA Narrow band filter to the front of the QHY 5 it reduces the brightness to enable me to use it. Lunt 60mm double stacked QHY 5 1000 frames. Captured in Fire capture Assembled in Registax False colour added in PS 6 Sheila, philjay and Tweedledee 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Not too bright and a lot of sharp detail. +Graham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philjay Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Looks good Graham. I found my qhy5 the same in the early days of the lunt, tried various things but settled on my Imgoh. +Graham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Graham Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 Thanks Folks. Phil QHY 5 will be a stop gap for me as I want to get a Point Grey camera in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
