Hey all,

I decided to try out my ST80 and the GSO .5x Reducer for the first time. I had to end up adding another filter before the reducer and camera. Luckily I had an Astronomik Clear filter to give about 10mm of extra space so that I could get a full disc. In the future, I am gonna just buy a cheap filter and knock the glass out of it unless anyone has a better idea

Anyway, I used Fire Capture and 10 seconds of imaging time with a 10ms and gain of 191. I then stacked the best 100 of the 1000 frames in AS3 for Chromosphere and for The little Proms then Registax then off to PScc. I am glad that it worked out, now I just need to work on the tunning a bit. I did this because there is a 4 star ISS solar transit the next town over, but unfortunately, rain is predicted now so I won't be capturing that, but oh well.

Thanks for Looking.

Orion ST80
Quark Daystar Chromosphere
GSO .50x Reducer
ZWO 174mm Camera
ZWO Tilt adapter and IR/UV Cut.
iOptron ZEQ25 Mount

No Diagonal for this one since I could not reach focus. I didn't even need anything, but I put in a Hollow GSO barlow since I like the grabbing knob better plus I stuck the IR/UV filter on the end of it.
