Single Stack / Double Stack Comparison 24th March


Clear skies, plenty of time and poor seeing meant I decided to do a comparison between the suns disk taken with my Lunt 50 etalon, 2x cemax barlow and 60mm f6 scope, and the disk taken with the same setup replacing the cemax barlow for a Daystar Quark.  While the single stack view can offer some nice views of the prominences for all round contrast and visibility of detail the double stack setup wins hands down.
