Subject: questions about sharpening before/ while stacking and IR pass filter
Hi Folks,
Well, the holiday and some brief periods of fair seeing has given me a
chance to try out the DMK camera with IIDC. I like the setup and it should
work well in the future :).
I wanted to ask about sharpening before or while stacking. There are
various degrees of sharpening, including noise reduction, available in IIDC.
The manual shows the differences. I was wondering if anyone else regularly
uses this presharpening and what benefits does it have?
Also, the IR-780 IR pass Schuler filter definitely didn't seem to be the
right choice. It significantly dimmed targets over any of my other filters,
including blue. Therefore, I'm going to exchange or return it if I can find
out the correct spectrum of the filter I need. Anyone know which IR pass
range or filter offers the best transmission? (Alan, I must have been wrong
in assuming you had the Schuler IR-78)
Thanks,
Eric
