Great video, very useful, especially seeing the tone curves. Thank you !

Thanks for this info, your channel is great. Looking forward to more video!

Brilliant! I'd been so unadventurous with IMPPG settings until I saw this video. The presets are great and provide a superb springboard for my own experimentation. Thank you.

very nice review

Thank you. I have been using a Quark with my 150mm f8 refractor and have been very happy with it. Now you have me thinking about getting a 40mm Lunt and double stacking my 150mm. Your videos are great and have really helped me to do solar imaging.

Rock n roll! Amazing how you accomplish this

It's nice but you might change the title for the right date.

The noise reduction in the featured side-by-side images looks amazing -- look forward to your full video!

This video has been extremely helpful. Thank you very much.

I can collimate my Newtonian is less than a minute with my laser collimator. I have spent hours trying to collimate my new Celestron C6-A XLT and have failed. I just heard of this device yesterday and have ordered one. If it is as easy to use as indicated on TH-cam videos, I will be happy.

Nice. Beefy scope, there

Very useful, Mark. It's interesting the number of variations one sees from different imagers on how they tweak the tone curve. Yours is fairly simple and straightforward. Thank you for generously sharing. Do you have a template for FDs, looking at the image over your left shoulder, it favours inverted disc, normal proms.

Amazing capture

Excellent channel!!!

Phenomenal images Mark. Very impresive building that setup but as you said I am not sure many will attempt to build a double stack. I would be afraid to buy the new Lunt only to take it apart, however, your over all price is cheaper than if you purchased the already made system since you already had the Tec. The main reason I went with a quark was I already had a perfectly good scope. Cheers

Thanks so much for sharing your amazing images, process and expertise. From time to time you use the word "seeing" in a technical sense I think e.g - "the sun's seeing changes". In this context does "seeing" mean the same as "visibility" or does it have a different meaning?

Super useful! Thanks so much.

Curious. I recently bought a zwo asi 174 to use on sharpcap pro while viewing the sun as I've seen many others do here. Hooked it up, no GAMMA button. Do you believe it's necessary to have and do you know where it went?

Great, very useful! Thanks! Your tutorials on IMPPG are excellent.

Thank you Mark! Excellent idea, I will try this!

Great idea! I never thought of saving presets methodically like you have!

What is the best Telescope to see craters on the moon budget around 1500? Conventional telescope I like looking through the lenses

Thank you--that is absolutely awesome and amazing!!

Brilliant capture and time-lapse - not fair😂 you get way better seeing than I.😅

I caught this same area! Not as great as yours and maybe after your catch...I started around 1pm PST. I got a Timelapse on my channel, thanks for all your helpful tips!

Wow, that's amazing and so beautiful. Thank you for posting it, especially on Threads (where I am every day)

Nice work. That was an awesome Timelapse. 🤙🏽

I actually didn't intend for this announcement to be seen, TH-cam surprised me. I have a new video dropping Sept 1 on how to optimize ImPPG with some new settings and workflows. Then this one on the 15th. I'm committing to adding two new tutorials or equipment reviews every month, on the 1st and 15th going forward. 🙂

Should we wait for 17 days 😭

Hi I am interested to purchase this Camera , this cameras are available on EBay and they come from China ,you know if I have to paid extra when the camera arrives like Costums , taxes ? Thanks

Crisp and sharp solar discs. How about normal halpha discs, not inverted ones?

Amazing!

I must say it's nice to have a mount that doesn't make us work on balancing! Pricey though😅.... Mark, could you give a short on the triple stack you add to the Quark. Cheers.

My absolute goodness, bro. Fantastic work.

🔥🔥🔥

Great review thanks. Its an expensive hobby compared to night time astro but there is a lot of second hand equipment out there. I got a Coronado PST second hand at a very good price and similar results to the Lunt, though its less suited to imaging so you have to work a bit harder. I don't think there is so much second hand Lunt stuff about at present but if you have the funds its looks like great gear. I hope someone buys Coronado from the ashes of Meade. Choice is good.

Good evening from Greece! I admire you and thank you for sharing your knowledge! I have a lunt 40 B1200 and I also have power mate x2,5 and x5. I want to buy a time lapse camera. I am between 178m and 432m. Do you think it is a better option? Thank you very much!!

Wow, the images are sublime! So crisp & clear! Well done Mark! 👍👏👏👏

Watching again - love your trick on the Proms.... Just wish I was able to achieve your level of seeing - sadly N. Scotland is too battered!

Hello. Any video about mosaic processing ? . Its not easy to have the different parts with equal illumination . What is the trick there ? (I apply same curves to every part so that is not the cause) thanks for your videos

Amazing! I would have thought that the light loss from the double stack etalons would make it almost impossible to get an image from. Just using the Quark cuts so much light. I have never used a lunt etalon, does it not cut the light to the same extent as the Quark? Do you have to max out the exposure and gain to get a workable fps? Very interesting.. thanks

Peak solar photography project! And amazing results with those images. Very well done!
