Looks familiar. (-;
Your full disk CAK pictures are way better than I was able to deliver with this scope. Seems that the B1200 is the way to go.
H-alpha was also with the LS60T CaK?
Enjoy the instrument!
Bart.

Thanks Bart

H-alpha images were obtained with the LS60T Ha

I had to reduce the aperture to 4 cm. Lunt Ca-K Modules work better with at F/10 (tried using it at full aperture with bad results)

I used it for WL imaging as well (also at F/10)

Some lovely faint proms, but the little spot group steals the show in all wavelengths :bow

I imaged the sun this morning and tried the Daystar Quark for the first time (not great)

Nice pickies and nice new toys Pedro! The CaK filters definitely perform better at longer focal ratios.
