Filter recommendation help


 

Hello, everyone.? ?It's been a while since i posted here but I have been keeping an eye on the messages.? ?

I observe from my backyard in Orleans and the skies are pretty good to the south (my main viewing) despite the Walmart nearby.? ?I'd like to have a look at the Flame Nebula and maybe the Horsehead but when I checked both, I couldn't readily see them with my setup (C11 Edge with Mallincam DSC10C camera, 0.7 focal reducer).? ?I tried both my OIII and UHC filters to no avail.? ?I was thinking that I needed something with H-alpha and maybe H-beta and saw that the Optoplong L--ENhance filter has those wavelengths covered.? But then reviews suggested that the L-EXtreme was better, although it doesn't cover the H-beta wavelengths as much.? ?Based on my equipment and likely targets, i would welcome any suggestions as to which of these (or some other filter) would be the best choice.??

Any help would be appreciated.

Clear skies, everyone.

Take care and stay safe,

Peter Fundarek
