That Iris Nebula looks awesome, dark nebula have eluded me too. I was also fortunate to have Optolong reach out to me a while back and ask me to try out their L-Quad and I have found it to be great. I live under bortle 5 skies and it's been great. I shoot in colour though.

Hmmm, I never thought of "Doubling Filters". I will certainly try adding the L-Quad ahead of the LRGB filters..
(I'm just up the road in Savannah with a Bortle 4.5 sky)

Guve it a try and let me know. The only filter that gave me weird results was the baader moon and sky glow. It produces some rining around brighter stars. The optolongs have done a much better job

I have had the L Quad now for a few months and lovin' it. I have been using it with my EdgeHD8, 0.7 reducer, ASI294MC Pro on a CGX. It has really made a huge difference. Should I mention my backyard is Bortle 4. Don't hate me.🙂

Very cool! I have the l quad and was only using it on my OSC, but will need to try it on my qhy2868mm for sure now. I'm also shooting from bortel 7 skies.

Always love your videos. Your style is hilarious and the information is great. I might just try that filter as it priced well. Wish they had an F2 version for it but for narrowband imaging I think your images speak for themselves.
Best regards

Thanks Luis!

Thanks for a great video!
I think it makes sense that the quad has better contrast and less gradients, as it let’s less light through in general. You clearly demonstrated that :)
But how about retaining relevant colors? What is it cutting out compared to the Pro? Do stars retain their “real” colors?

Good afternoon, I have a question, when you are photographing with the Ha, SII or OIII, do you also have the L Quad or L enhance filter in the coma corrector? Thanks

[@enteringintospace4685]

Yes I leave the Lquad in all the time. The Elephant trunk nebula at the end of the video was shot with it.

[@rafaberrios8142]

can you tell us what is the benefit of using these filters with a mono camera stacked up with narrow filter?

[@Alan-vk6bk]

New mount?? 😎

[@enteringintospace4685]

Yeah, cem 70. It's been great and aggravating

[@DLMVegas]

I don't know why Optolong can't make filters for Nikon cameras.

[@Zealor365]

Why are you showing us the images inverted from each other by 180 degrees?

[@enteringintospace4685]

It's the reference images each stack used.
