I took the rgb portion of my M13 - image last night. This CCD stuff is not for the faint of heart! It took mo all night just to figure the color thing out and take 9 images! I have no clue as to the colors being right...

Thanks James and Walter. I am using flats and weighed my shots as L1.5:R1.5:G1:B1 because as I understand it this camera's QE is lower in the red spectrum.

Best,

Jose

Your hard work certainly paid foo, Jose. That has to be one of the best-resolved and prettiest images of M13 I've ever seen. Beautiful. Thanks.
