Wow! Huge field of view. How do you like that triband filter?
Thanks Tony.
I do like the Triband filter especially when the moon is super bright & it does allow longer exposures without over exposing.
The other thing I like about the filter is being able to split the three bands & process individually thus retaining better star size & colour manipulation when combining the bands back together.

You've got a color altair camera to do that ? KUDOS Marc .
Yes. Using triband or dualband & running data through APP has the ability to split the channels
