i would have liked to see the no filter version as well
a big thank you for your video, finally someone who does not just read the information on the sites, and who shows in real time the result with the material, a big thank you to you for your work and +1 as 'subscriber. (sorry if there are translation errors, I use google translate
Another quick, easy to understand, great video, thanks.
Thanks Tom :)
Very informative! Thank you
Informative video. It would be interesting to see a galaxy image (like M31) taken with both filters for comparison.
Indeed! That would be a good comparison.
Filters don’t work on galaxies
@@Astronurd This is wrong. Theres a thread on Cloudynights where one user compared CLS and UHC filters on M31 and M33. They both looked just fine. For less total integration time, the UHC filter clearly wins, while at integrations of over 4 to 6 hours there is little to no difference. Whats weird is that the CLS filter produced a way stronger color cast than the UHC filter. Purely going by physics and the transmission lines of Elipticals and Spirals and comparing them to what the CLS and UHC filters block out, one would think those filters dont work for Galaxies. Actually using them will deliver perfectly fine results however. And i can confirm that as well. You just have to do a bit more Color Calibration in post but thats it. I did a Svbony UHC vs ZWO UV/IR cut comparison to reduce blue star bloat on my TS 80ED and it did quite a lot better with the UHC. For people that cant afford overpriced FPL-53 OTA's or any Triplets at all, this is a very good reason to use UHC filters on galaxies. (i did my testing on an asi585mc btw).
Great demonstration, thanks!
Thanks 🙏
Great video. Thanks!
Great video, thanks a lot!
Great content! There are some reviews complaining about Svbony Eos-C UHC clip-in filter creates a blue gradient in the image.
Hey mate,
I've not noticed any blue gradient in the image.
Nice video. But I do miss a photo without any filter, to make an even better comparison.
Good point! Next time I will do that comparison :)
Nice analysis.
Thanks for the nice comparison. I bought the 2" Svbony CLS filter.
2" is great! Has it arrived yet?
@@AstroOnbudget Yes it has. I'm putting together an imaging rig. and will be using it in my field flattener.
@@freddylq67 that's excellent! What camera have you got?
@@AstroOnbudget I have an Atik 320e.& Canon DSLR.
Great comparison. Are these used with a stock camera or astro modified? Would've been nice if you would've showed a comparison with camera without any filters. Regardless, amazing !
Wish i had done one without any filter. :) Thanks for the feedback
So you got these images with stock not astro modified?
I know this is a year late but which filter removes the white light from the new LED street lights?
If I use the eos version of the filter I can't attach a canon lens?
So you got these with stock DSLR and not astro modified?
Qual o melhor filtro para galáxia?
Excelente 🤩
Is that a modded canon or stock ?
As always great tutorial thank you.
I used the modded camera. Although it shouldn't matter much in this comparison.
Super test
No galaxy sample comparison photos?
Uhc is a bit better as an all rounder, I think, based on the presented photos
Theoretically, UHC is supposed not to be as good with galaxies.
Cheap filters are a waste of money. I spent a lot of money on them before I bought an Astronomik UHC and OIII filters. Boy did this open my eyes.
Thats awesome. How has your experience been with Astronomik UHC?
@@AstroOnbudget Honestly it’s in a different league, and I just wish that I’d bought it before trying to save money on others. Clear skies
hi, what is the Bortle value in your area? I am looking to get an Astronomik one, can't decide whether UHC or CLS is better. UHC one is bit cheaper though.
Does the Bortle class matter?
Yes absolutely! I wouldn't use any filters below Bortle 5
Is your camera modified or not please?
This was modified camera :)
Are these filters only for Canon cameras?
You can find similar filters for your camera. What are you using?
@@AstroOnbudget I'm running a sony! got any suggestions?
The wiggling hands format
Haha yep wiggling hands
What about a CPL filter?
CPL filters are used to reduce the glare during the day. I don't think they have much application for astrophotography
UHC (Modified Camera) and CLS (Unmodified Camera)
