I just got a LRGB set of Antlia V-Pro filters (1.25") and put them in my PlayerOne filter wheel. I put my flat panel on top of my telescope and I ran the Nina auto exposure flat wizard and it came up with the following exposure times for my filters: L: 0.60 seconds R: 6.13 seconds G: 1.88 seconds B: 2.51 seconds Now bear in mind this is a constant brightness light source from a flat panel. I would expect all 3 RGB Antlia V-Pro filters to have roughly the same exposure time to reach 50% ADU since their bandwidths are fairly equal in size. Do other people experience the too or do I have a bad R filter? |

I think this is some quirk of the QE/sensitivity curve of your sensor. They are not uniformly sensitive across the entire visible spectrum. See diagram below I picked off google as an example for the 294MM and 1600MM ![]() |

I have to expose my Chroma R filter a little more than the others too. Not only the sensor as mentioned, but how sure are you that your flat panel is sending equal signal across all wavelengths. |

Probably your light source. Doubt it has anything to do with your filters.

Your assumption that all filters should reach 50% in the same amount of time is incorrect. You need to consider the QE curve of the sensor as well as the light source for your flats. For example, I have the Poseidon-M and Astronomik Deep Sky RGB filters. I use a Gerd Neumann Aurora flat panel. LRGB flats I took: L - 0.30" R - 2.35" G - 0.83" B - 0.71" The variation you're experiencing is perfectly normal. Nothing wrong with your filters ![]() |

You are looking for a problem where none exists, just start imaging.
