Are these suitable to get started in CMOS photometry. Does anyone in BAA have experience of using them?

Hi Kevin,

Yes, I use these filters, but I only use the R, V and B. I would forget ‘U’, but the ‘I’ can be useful. I use them with a CCD camera, but no problems with a CMOS camera.

As well as photometry, I also use them for colour imaging as there is not enough room in my 7-pos filter wheel for a standard set of RGB filters. I have the following filters: L, R, V, B, Ha, OIII, SII, and this works very well for everything.

Best Regards
Ian.
