Going Mono with the ToupTek ATR2600MM Kit

I finally went mono after 14+ years of imaging with color cameras! The quality difference is extremely noticeable and now I wish I went mono earlier.

The mono kit includes these below (please note that the links are affiliate links):

Mono Cam: ToupTek ATR2600M
Filter Wheel: ToupTek AFW-L
LRGB Filters: ToupTek 2″ LRGB Filters
4nm SHO Filters: Touptek 2″ SHO 4nm Filters

The cost of the SHO filters at 4nm is impressive. I’m send everything here down to Death Valley Observatories in a few weeks and I’m excited to see what I get from a Bortle 3 zone!
