This is my first ever narrow band bi-color of Bubble Nebula with Atik 460EX and C-8 EdgeHD.

More details are described there. The first image is bi-color using Ha and Oii. The second image is Ha and third image is Oiii. Red = Ha, Green = Oiii, Blue = Oiii. Processed with PixInsight.

Mono camera makes a huge difference over OSC camera. The details are more clear with mono plus filters. My previous camera was SXVR-M25C which is an excellent OSC camera.

Enjoy!!

Nice 1st narrowband image!

But don't throw out the SXVR-M25C.  It is a good camera.

Congrats on the first light!
I just purchased a 460EXm as well but for now I'm just waiting for clear skies :(
