Yes excellent primer for new amateurs, and a good refresher for those who were very active in the hobby years ago, took a long break, and are just now coming back. Thanks Kevin 👍
Great info. Would like to see a follow-up on how seeing is quantified, i.e. how can the seeing in my backyard be rated. Additionally how to match an OTA to a sensor. Are there general rules-of-thumb or is a mathematical deep-dive necessary?
You talked about “IR pass” filters for planetary and the moon images. Does this mean it allows infrared to pass and blocks some of the visible light or is this an IR blocking filter and allows visible light to pass through the filter? Which kind are you speaking of? Thanks!
Excellent content on a misunderstood topic. Thankyou

Good information, thanks
Excellent informative video! These concepts weren't very clear to me before watching this video.

The REAL problem with getting, infrequently, a masterstroke of pure seeing spoils you for anything less, the views are that good.
Water on the air does not make air heavyier it does make it lighter.
