Steve.
Congrats on the buy.
Do us a favor if you are up for it?
Take a few comparison shots for us to see how well it works?

While on filters, here is a very interesting site comparing the transmission frequencies of different filters.
www.astrosurf.com/buil/filters/curves.htm

It was an especially useful for comparing Lumicon and Astronomic filters.

Hi guys....

Seeing that the clouds would not play ball, I tried a quick experiment by shooting directly at the lights in the kitchen, with and without the filter. The details are as follows: Canon 350D, ISO200, 1/80Sec, F5.6, Daylight W/B. 50mm lens

This is the shot without the Clip in CLS Filter


And this is the shot with the Filter


No processing was done, except for cropping and convertion to JPEG for the Web!!

I'll just have to wait a while in order to try it out on real astro targets!!!!!
