Hi Paul, It's funny, I have the book but never put two and two together before. Dennis Persyk posted one of our images up here and I got an amazing number of...
Dennis, That is a great result. No doubt that color imaging is harder. This is especially true with a straight RGB. Did you refocus for each filter? If not,...
Thanks for the feedback, Matt. Yes, I did focus between filter changes. In fact, I now focus every 1/2 hour whether it needs it or not. I find that the E160...
