Continuing to gather OIII, shell got a nice snr increase with an added 5hrs from last night.

  • Esprit 80 (f/5)

le starless

halcyon copper
#

Merci beaucoup!

#

Btw what does OIII stand for?

#

Ik it's like HA for hydrogen alpha

coral estuary
#

Oxygen III

#

Doubly ionized oxygen of course

#

Apparently OIII is the spectroscopic notation.

wonder if i could get anywhere near that ha with a 20nm bandpass ha filter and modded dslr

coral estuary
#

This was with my modified 450D and 10nm Ha / 20nm OIII.

#

Like 8hrs of 300" subs low bortle 6

#

mm, my bandpass would be twice as wide, im b4, no astrodark rn, can maybe push like 1min30sec subs at F2

#

doubt it though

coral estuary
#

With f2 and a modified DSLR + darker skies (even with no astrodark) you'd likely have a pretty big advantage.

#

Even with the wider bandpass

#

My Z61 was around f/5

crystal cape
#

yeaaaah but ths is civil twilight type of no astrodark

coral estuary
#

Ahh yea that's prolly worse than I'm imagining

crystal cape
#

i also have 0 broadband data on it, would just be the "ha"

coral estuary
#

Yea HOO is great by itself

crystal cape
#

i could prob pick up a cheap 20nm "Oiii" filter as well but idk

coral estuary
#

Oh lol I thought you have some sort of duoband filter for the roki

crystal cape
#

nah i have some random filter from aliexpress that screws into the front, dont think i can get a duoband for my setup that doesnt go in the front since i dont have a filter drawer

coral estuary
#

What DSLR?

#

There's a few clip in options from optolong/SVBONY for aps-c Canon.

#

I used their CLS clip in filter and it did nicely.
