Askar Colour Magic 6nm Dual NarrowBand 2" Filter Review
A review of the Askar Colour Magic 6nm Dual NarrowBand 2" Filter.
In this video I give the new Askar Colour Magic 6nm Duo Band 2" Filter a night under the stars. The bold claim of no halo's by Askar was certainly a gauntlet laid down and I think you'll be suprised by the results.
As well as single 10 minute exposures, the video finshes off with a short integration of 13x600s exposures with what I think you'll agree are breathtaking results for such a short amount of time
