Camera SetUps
The cameras for Planets/Moon/Sun ASI290MM/ASI183MM/ASI294MM (mono) and for DeepSky the mono cameras SBIG STX-16803 plus SBIG Guider Cam external (linked to the telescope ED80)
ASI 290 MM Mono Camera (2x)
(V1: Sun Bright Field -detailed- / V2: H alpha -detailed-), (Planets)
FC Settings:
V1 BF xx fps / xx ms, xx gain, USB Traffic 100% + V2 Ha 45fps / 16 ms, 350 gain, USB Traffic 90%
V1 Planets xx fps /xx ms, xx gain, USB Traffic 100%
SI 183 MM Mono Camera (2x)
(V1.2: Sun Bright Field -wide- / V2.2: H-alpha -wide-), (Moon -detailed-)
FC Settings:
V1 BF xx fps / xx ms, xx gain, USB Traffic 100%
V2 Ha max (8 -> 9) fps / 21 ms, 350 gain, USB Traffic 82%
V1 Moon 15,7 fps /xx ms, xx gain, USB Traffic 100%
ASI 294 MM Mono Camera (Moon -wide-)
FC Settings:
V1 Moon max 14,7 fps /xx ms, xx gain, USB Traffic 90%
Each Camera has in front of the CCD Chip a Clear filter to prevent the contamination with dust and to protect the internal electronic from dew

Remote Guider Head on telescope ED80 with the same Chip as the internal STX-16803 Guider Chip
Projection SetUps
* Moon
* Sun 'bright light' with Baader AstroSolar® Safety Film OD 5.0 in front of telescope P Keller/ASA400
* Planets
I use the telescope ASA400 partially in combination with FFC fluorid flatfield projection converter
* H-alpha Sun Projections
Never look directly with your eyes into the sun or you irreparably damage your eyes!
For the Sun H-alpha (filter SolarContinuum SC 0.2A) fotographie, the Telezentric Units of Baader TZ3, TZ4 are available and they are used in combination with my Evostar conversion ED150 Skywatcher telescope (well corrected for the H alpha light)
D-ERF (Dielectric coated Energy Reflection Filter) in front of ED150 and Telezentric Projection SetUps
(Optimal focal lenghts ratio's > 30)
D-ERF 120mm reduced aperture for TZ-3 (f30/ 3600mm)
D-ERF 150mm full aperture for TZ4 (f32/ 4800mm)
Telezentric projection Units TZ-3, TZ-4 always in combination with CCD Cameras
