Re: [APML] Fuji 160 NPL Tungsten

["John Boudreau" <jeboud@attbi.com>]

I have shot Kodak 320T Tungsten on the Eskimo and Cat's Eye Nebulae a couple of years ago. I was wondering how it handled the OIII line in planetary nebulae.

As you say Chris---- Blue, blue, and more blue--- just different shades of blue. The only colors really apparent in the results. Not to mention _lots_ of grain  ( I pushed it 2x, IIR).

A complete waste of time.
