Episode 11 - OSC Filters, where to start?

Send me a Text Message!

Looks like this went live a little early, enjoy! No clue why it's saying 3/12, but this is indeed for today (3/26/24).

Welcome BACK Astro fam! Sorry I was gone - I missed you all! Unfortunately, I was not on vacation, but rather our beloved cat Biscuit passed away. She was with me for 16 years after I found her in a bush at an office park as a tiny little kitten, where I worked at in my 20's. She will be greatly missed. I'm happy to be back though, and this week's episode is a great one!

We're talking about FILTERS for one shot color cameras! We talk about where to start, what you should get, what to expect, and how much to spend. I give 3 great examples of various filters that can take on various jobs that range from DSLR Cameras to Cooled Astro Cams.
