[@jimcauthen2132]

Your videos are always entertaining and educational, I'm glad you're out there sharing your info with the rest of us out here so we're not blindly stumbling around. Question for you on the topic of Color & filters - do you do any binning with your mono RGB filtered shots, maybe 2x2, while leaving the Lum/Detail layer a 1x1? Just started getting my feet wet with my ASI1600MM pro and haven't found a clear answer/explanation to that question yet. And lastly, the Celestron AutoFocuser.... OMG, I love it! Thanks for giving us all the heads up on it - that little critter is amazing!

[@DylanODonnell]

Hey thanks! I don’t do binning for the rgb but I do process the living Jesus out of it.. the layer can be rubbish as long as the L is good so I blur out the noise, minimum the stars etc.

[@sergeauvin8479]

What an excellent idea to summarize all these configurations. Although i'm sticking to my moded DSLR for astrophotography -and I'm pretty sure ther's still a lot I can do with it- it' s good to understand better how these multiple palettes can be reached. On a side note, some weeks before 2019 NEAF, my daughter met you on a beach at Byron bay. If I understood her well, you were trying to make people aware of the sky beauty by showing the Moon craters through a telescope. At least, she was deeply impressed by what you showed her. It is always much more effective when somebody else teach you something... than your own parents :)

[@DylanODonnell]

Hey that's funny.. I do outreach but usually to schools around Byron and sometimes groups of kids come through the observatory but the person on the beach was almost certainly not me. The last time I took a portable scope out with the public was during the lunar eclipse at the lighthouse :) There is another guy I think with a portable scope .. I think I've met him once :)

[@jacksonfroman2048]

Just got a 1600mm, and I only have the narrowband filters so far. I didn’t get the wheel with 1.25 ones because I’m investing in filters I can use with larger censor cameras. Going to get the LRGB next week. Guess I’ll only be shooting nebulae this weekend.

Dylan, I must commend you on this video. Excellent presentation, editing and content. This is precisely the type of educational material us noob’s need. Astrophotography is one of the most frustrating hobbies there is but also one the most rewarding when everything comes together. Your videos contribute greatly to advance the hobby. I just hope all those new amateur astronomers don’t use up all the light and leave some for me..... :) Oh, one other thing. I hardly recognized you when you were interviewed by Trevor.

1:47 oh, Dylan, please never change xD

[@DylanODonnell]

Ok 😆

[@prabhuvpop]

excellent

[@sjgonline]

Once again... nailed it! I’d just add another tip: when doing LRGB or HaRGB with a mono camera, since you have that rich Luminance layer, you can even use Bin2 (or twice as much binning as the L) to speed up the capture or get more color data for the same exposure time. All you have to do in processing is “double” the RGB stacked subs.

[@DylanODonnell]

That’s right! In fact the rgb layer can be complete rubbish, blurry etc. doesn’t matter :)

[@stew_redman]

How has this channel not got way more subs? Spread the word people!

[@DylanODonnell]

Thanks man .. surprised I’m almost at 10k tbh!

This is so much better then many other astronomy videos. Especially in the sense you’re up front honest (stupid human eyes) and add the humor which is what’s needed in any hobby (it’s a bit for fun anyway isn’t it, though you wouldn’t say that when looking at many fora). Thanks! Btw; I would just use APP or PI anyway instead of photoshop.

[@DylanODonnell]

Thanks V! You’re absolutely right. It’s hard to not make the videos too centric to my gear and software workflow so I try to share the broad concepts if possible.

[@benjaminraber6865]

Hi Dylan. Great video as always! What are your thoughts on putting narrowband filters in front of a one shot color camera?

[@DylanODonnell]

It’s fun but sort of difficult to do usefully. I’ve done it before and it’s cool to see one pixel light up in the Bayer matrix. Trippy.

[@paulbenoit249]

Hey Dylan fantastic video, very well summed up. I always had a question on something you touched on: I was wondering what RGB photography using filter wheel and r g b filters was bringing compared to say have 2 cameras, one color one, one mono, where with the first one you would get the colors, and with the second one your luminance layer, both combined in photoshop. Although might appear a bit more expensive, it seems to me like a much easier practical handling compared to using only one camera but with a filter wheel and filters? Thxs again. Keep it up.

[@DylanODonnell]

Yeh see that’s why I don’t really use a filter wheel (much) for truecolour stuff. I do the Ha + OSC rgb trick with two cameras and the end result is going to be basically identical. Easy as :)

[@guitarintune408]

Hi Dylan, just a thought, can you explore on the subject of using an Achromat scope with narrowband imaging? Will the CA in achromats be an issue with narrowband mono cam imaging? Thanks and more power

[@paulwilson8367]

Glad to find this vid, though I admit I am still slightly confused. I just got a mono cam (1600) and getting LRGB filters to practice with. I am going to have to watch this again to see whether, at F/2, I should do 4 sets of images and flats, or a luminescence set and then, what? A color set with a different, OSC camera? That's where I got confused. Ha, I will get it figured out. But the multiple sets of flats looks like the toughest issue, as they have to come from a vertical RASA with an LED panel atop the dew shield. I will for sure be getting the F/2 baaders when I can afford them, right now I suck anyway. Not completely in love with "false color", but I love the resolution.

[@Neilus001]

Hi there Dylan! Amazing videos, I'm trying to watch them all, learning a lot! I just found out Celestron has an official store here in Argentina, and I would love to get a 8" tube. Would you recommend a telescope or an astrograph? I'm really deep into AP, and I can get a CPD Deluxe 800 HD GOTO, Nextar 8, or maybe the 8" or 11" RASA astrograph. I have been wanting to have a small observatory all my life, and now slowly it's picking pace, couldn't be happier!!

[@DylanODonnell]

That's great news! Welcome to the hobby my friend :)

[@jgwinus]

Hey Dylan Thanks for your channel! Too many of us (me...) get too caught up in the orthodoxy of How It Must Be Done, and end up having what should have been a fun night of shooting ruined by a misstep in our overly precise process. Good to have a reality check on how to keep the joy of this beautiful hobby intact and still come out with a spectacular result. Props! Now to completely contradict myself: with a process question i have a rasa 11 and am pretty much baffled at easily getting flats shot between filter/camera changes. What is your process, or do you even worry flats for each and just use a single channel for them? Thx!

[@DylanODonnell]

I don't do flats at all.. instead I'm OCD about dust on the filters and camera sensor etc and make sure everything is clean so I don't have to deal with dust motes. Then all a flat is for is vignette correction really, which is simple enough to do in post with a background extraction or synthetic flat :) I think the way you are supposed to do it is with sky flats, but it all gets a bit tricky as the flat is ruined if you change the rotation at all after taking them, which you typically want to after dark.

[@mortaneous]

Hey Dylan would you say the ability to get the detail and sharpness in your pictures is down to using a mono camera or no? I'm very torn between upgrading to a ZWO on shot color or mono camera. Could I use a mono camera in conjunction with my DSLR for layering like you have? I'm still really learning the processing side. I obviously don't want to buy something that I can't use as I want.

[@Broccoli_32]

I’ve got a modified DSLR is it even worth doing narrowband with RGB? I want to shoot some false color but I don’t know if it’s even possible with a DSLR. Which channel would you extract the HA data from? I assume the red and what about OII and SII?

[@DylanODonnell]

I think even modified DSLRs still have a colour bayer matrix so you're only using 1/3rd to 1/4 of the pixels for narrowband. It's possible with dithering to compensate but not as good as a mono camera for narrowband.

[@DylanODonnell]

Switch to firecapture.. it’s free and awesome :) you don’t want to go above 45 seconds per channel to get the full RGB set without rotation blurring. And a motorised filterwheel helps.. FC will do all 3 in succession in a single click.

[@quirkyastronomy8287]

@@DylanODonnell Thank you! I've heard lots about both sharpcap and firecapture so I just downloaded one lol. I'm only using a Meade ETX 125 but I'm getting better the more I image😁.

Sadly you can't put a filter wheel on a RASA..... can you? : P This is really interesting though, OSC + Ha exposure..... I have two identical refractors, and was thinking of getting dual mono cams and doing L+R and then G+B exposures, but now I'm thinking, I could get one mono and one colour cam, and just do Ha + OSC... food for thought
