Thanks everyone so far for your inputs. You learn ALL the time in this game, and I guess I should have explored the world of filters a little more instead of just going with what the SBIG salesman said, my biggest concern here being the apparent different focus's and the non IR blocked clear filter. I read different opinions on whether one has IR or non IR luminance images. I DO get some reasonably severe blooming in some targets and it detracts from the whole picture in the end. Also I find now I think of it that when I colour combine in Maxim .. the blue dots always seems bigger and so, some, not all stars have a blue tinge on mostly one edge. Frustration is a word Im seeing a LOT of in posts ... I know why now ... the universe does not give up her secrets easily, tis for sure, however THAT just makes me MORE determined to conquer it.
