Mauricio, you'll need SEVERAL (hundreds) shots to SEE a difference in your stacked image... 13 won't do much for you...


Clear skies!

Lumicon UV Dust Seal for most SCTs??

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo
Hello Jay!

I used to have one, and even though the idea of a Dust Seal is a good one, on the other hand it is another piece of glass in your light path. Not only that, but some people let their scopes cool-off by leaving the back-end of their SCTs open, the Dust Seal would have to be removed, which defeats its purpose, I guess...

I ended up selling it...



Clear skies!
