QHY IMG0H ir cut

Recommended Posts

I've been using my IMG0H camera for a while now for planetary/lunar imaging.


 


I stumbled across the Astronomy Shed you tube review of the camera and discovered that the camera has an IR cut filter built in, which I hadn't seen on any specifications.


 


Not realising this I fitted the IR cut filter I had been using on my Philips webcam, so I had been using two filters.


 


I don't know how much this will have affected my pictures but I always thought the capture wasn't very bright.


 


Need some clear skies now to see how it performs without the additional filter.

if they are both filtering different wavelength spans probably quite a bit.


The result of removing one should be quite interesting.


Keep us posted

Can you get information on the wavelengths each filter is designed to filter out?
