Default Planetary Imaging Tutorial/Suggestions

All:

I've updated my planetary imaging techniques tutorial (just a bunch of suggestions, observations, and measurements; focusing on the equipment). Page 1 refers to the dual Atik camera set-up (monochrome + RGB). Page 2 through page 4 reference the (Lumenera) Skynyx + LRGB filters that I now use.

If anyone has comments, corrections, suggestions, let me know; I'm most interested in comments associated with Pages 2 through 4.

If you have personally measured the Skynyx 2-0 read noise, I'd like to know your results.

The beginning is at:

Nice tutorial/discussion, Robert. Some good observations in there.

I would've liked to see some sample images scattered throughout which would've helped to illustrate the points you were making.
