| I’m astonished at the resolution and clarity of our Sun through Coronado’s soon to be released P.S.T. Calcium K scope. From the moment of first light I’ve been mesmerized by the optical performance found within the P.S.T. CaK. This precision intrinsic to the finest Hydrogen-alpha and Calcium K telescope/filter manufacturer is constant. |
| Delicate Calcium K supergranulation cells are remarkably solid and prominences's once described as a rarity are now established and considered an integral part of the SolarMax 70 CaK and inherent in the P.S.T. CaK.Imaging techniques through the P.S.T. CaK from both afocal and a dedicated CCD chip camera’s were equally impressive and accomplished with ease.Congratulations Team Coronado!SteadySkies, g a r y p a l m e r |
