Hi Fernando, Baader Planetarium does not participate in this group and apparently no one on the group has an answer to your question. I recommend you contact...
Hi everyone, new to the group here. I'm planning on getting an Ha filter for my OSC camera (Orion Starshoot Pro DSCI) and am curious if anyone has any...
Hi all, Just got my 10mm(?) Hyperion. Haven't tried it yet as it's darn cold outside. I was hoping to purchase several Hyperions to use as both 1.25 and 2...
Hi Folks I'm new to this group and moving into narrow band imaging. I just recieved a SII filter unmounted and am not sure which side goes toward the the CCD...
Hi Larry, To use the Hyperion eyepieces as 2" eyepieces you do not generally remove the 1.25" nosepiece with its included lens grouping. Rather you just...
Hi Group Can someone tell me the weight of the Baader Herschel Wedge - please. Reason is - I've just received my Borg 77 travel scope to be used on the night...
Hi Carl, I can't find that spec in any of the online info and don't own one, but I bet Alpine Astro can tell you: http://www.alpineastro.com Also, as a point...
Hi everyone! I just bought a SV102ED2 4" refractor and have also acquired, for my eyepieces, Hyperions 21mm, 13mm and 5mm. I'm just waiting for the right...
Hello, The slight change in lens distances imparted by the fine-tuning rings should not affect image quality much, if any. During visual use, I have not ...
New to the group but looking for an explanation as to teh real differences between these two diagonals. I can really tell by just reading the descriptions,...
Hi, I have reviewed both models here: http://www.nexstarsite.com/EquipmentReviews.htm Let me know if you have any questions. Best regards, Mike Swanson Author...
Thanks Michael, I had read both reviews but thought that I might have been missing something. From the reviews I conclude that it is the mirror coating that...
Yes, the mirror is coated with different methods in these two diagonals. The Maxbright mirror is technically better, but the Clicklock mirror is very close in...

Hi Marshall, The Contrast-Booster is basically the Fringe-Killer plus some additional targeted wavelength blocking to improve contrast on most solar system...
Marshall, I have the 2" fringe killer, and I really like it. I use it on my 110ED with good results all around. I had to create a preset in Lightroom to take...
Thanks for the follow-up, guys. One of the websites I saw said that the Contrast-booster works better with refractors 5" and larger and the Fringe-Killer for...
Hello all I'm also fishing around for info on what choice to make - F-K or C-B (2") I have a 120mm f/8.3 Skywatcher refractor and at high powers the magenta...
Hello, I'd recommend the Fringe-Killer. The C-B will make the images a little less bright and yellowish in tint so for your 120mm refractor with imaging in ...
I am hoping to use my Mallincam video camera to display the solar disk during the Venus transit in June. My club will be hosting a public viewing and I'd like...
Hi Michael, Try a Barlow between the Mallincam and the Herschel wedge. If that doesn't work, AT YOUR OWN RISK, try the Barlow in front of the wedge. Take it...
