    The Optolong L-Ultimate narrowband filter is nearly here! As is a new ZWO DSO camera that costs $15?! In this video I talk about the specs of both of these astonishing bits of equipment! As well as the latest on JWST, and my recommendations for what to image in September.

    Looking forward to the new filter, looks very interesting and affordable, that new camera on the other hand is something else .. that files size must be huge and those pixels must be very tiny to get 100Mp on such a little sensor

    • @AstroExploring
      @AstroExploring  Рік тому

      Thank you! Pixel size is the same as the 533. It’s an absolute monster of a camera but I’ll never own one!

      @@AstroExploring I just took a look at the asi website and I thought that you said that the new camera would have en 3/4 sensor, that's why I said it would have very tiny pixels.
      But it's not a 3/4 sensor but it's 3,4 inch sensor, so a medium format sensor, like the Fuyi GFX100.
      Than it's normal to have 100Mp, but I don't have the computer to process those images and also not the money to buy it + a new computer

    Great report, Nick.
    I am quite excited about that new Optolong L-Ultimate dual-3nm filter. I have the L-eNhance and this would be a great addition to my filter arsenal. Now about that new ZWO camera ... well, you know you got troubles when the camera cost more than quadruple the telescope and mount combined. Plus, I can't imagine the FIT file size of each image! As good as it appears, I think I too will take a pass.

      Thanks Patrick! I hadn’t even thought of the file size from the camera, I bet they’re massive!! Perhaps something like 150MB each

    Hey Nick, thank you for the nice video’s, im a fan haha.
    Question.
    I’m quite sure to buy the ultimate filter for my telescope. But im travelong to australia in a few weeks, with lots of class 1 skies! Is t a good idea to attach the ultimate filter with some step down rings to a wide angle lens in class 1 skies? Just wondering. Oh and i will take my star adventurer 2i with me 😊
    Thank you!

      I don’t own one but for the sake of people who do I hope not. They’re turning into Apple with the amount of models they’re releasing, and they’re all features that could’ve easily been included from v1/2!

    Can we point the JWST at Betelgeuse to see if it has gone supernova yet, or is that like injecting bleach to kill COVID-19? Love the news, keep it up, Nick.
