<< Hello all


Just joined the APML list.


Anyways, since Kodak discontinued TP it seems like Ha imaging with film 

is slowly going under.

Unfortunately I have never had the chance to try it, so I have always 

shot E200.

It seems like for now E200 would be a somewhat worthy follower to TP.


Did some testing with E200 and a Astronomik 13nm Ha filter, results can 

be found at http://www.home.no/svelo/temp/

The Ha picture is a 40min exposure, and the color one is 40min Ha+20min 

unfiltered.

Jonas:
An interesting concept.
So.....you exposed E200 for 40 minutes with the Ha filter and 20 minutes 
unfiltered?
The results are interesting.

At first, I thought exposing E200, a color transparency film, thru an Ha 
filter was not worthy of consideration. It seems E200 should record all the Ha it 
can unfiltered, but then the same could be said for hypered Tech Pan. 
Sometimes Ha filters are used in light polluted areas to filter out the polluting 
wavelengths with Tech Pan......so, I guess, why not with E200?

There seems to be more than one way to skin a cat.
