SOLAR SCOPE

STUDYING THE SUN

Complete Set-up:

  • ZWO AM5
  • Skywatcher Evostar 80ED
  • ZWO ASI432MM
  • Daystar Quark Chromosphere

Personal Notes

This is my go-to setup for solar imaging in H-alpha. The Skywatcher Evostar 80ED, paired with the Daystar Quark Chromosphere and the ASI432MM, delivers sharp details of prominences and surface structures. Despite its relatively short focal length, the 80ED works surprisingly well with the Quark, making it a simple and reliable configuration. Whenever the weather cooperates, I try to capture a close-up of our ever-changing star — a great way to stay connected to astrophotography even during daylight hours.
