Very nice! The CaK SHG image has much better contrast than the Quark equivalent does.

Thank you for the panel of images. The Sol'Ex certainly yields high contrast results. Very nice.

That's very good Alex.
How are you getting such a smooth edge to your Sol'ex solar disc?

I don't have much experience with spectrometer photography; Used for less than a month.

Single frame shooting, sunny weather, low gain and exposure, will the image improve?
