Re: Sun 27-4-2021

Thanks Ivan. I used a Lunt 60 tilt tuned, a IDS UI-3370CP and a 1.85X barlow. I used also a Baader Halpha 7nm before the blocking filter. Since I am doing this, the pictures are more even.

I have in Madrid a Stelarvue sv 90, triplet fluorite in good state. They were tested one by one by Vic Maris. Are you interested and we swap?

Re: Some images from the 17th of December 2020.

Beautiful shot Eric. Impressive prominences.
Which model of Stellarvue do you have? I have a Stellarvue SV90 triplet fluorite which I don't know if would be ok for a Quark.

Re: Sun 17-12-2020

Thanks to all. Yes, Jochen, it is the tilt-tuned version. The sweet spot covers usually only the half of the sun. I am thinking about getting a pressure tuned one or a back filter.
