Telescope

A superfast little autograph from Vixen that's natively a blisteringly quick F/3.8 F-Ratio

Pier 11 has a maximum sub length of 300s

CMOS Camera

The Player One Poseidon Colour CMOS is one of Sony's new generation zero amp glow sensors. They are super sensitive with very low noise.

If you choose more individual sub lengths eg 550s, then darks are not included in the price and are taken for you on an individual basis. Please add darks to your imaging run in checkout.

Although Pier-11 has a OSC Camera we have also added some modern Dual/Triband fiters designed for narrowband imaging etc

Antlia RGB -

Enhances contract in colour imges & increase narrowband regions within objects not to mention help block out some light pollution from the moon

Antlia Alp-T Ha/O3 5nm -

The filter enables the capture of the two main emission nebulae bands at the same time, whilst suppressing unwanted light pollution. It enables you to capture cleaner data and reduces the post processing efforts to isolate faint details from the background light pollution.

Antlia Alp-T Ha/Hb 5nm -

The filter enables the capture of the two main emission nebulae bands at the same time, whilst suppressing unwanted light pollution. It enables you to capture cleaner data and reduces the post processing efforts to isolate faint details from the background light pollution.

Bayer matrix

When you receive your data, at first glance it may appear green, this is normal because One shot colour cameras have a bayer matrix over the sensor, this particular sensor has a RGGB bayer matrix and you will need to de-bayer it as part of your calibration and stacking process in your chosen software.
