Hi there,
this one goes out to users of the Celestron EdgeHD. I own my 8" one for some months now and in some of the images, I realized some reflections on bright stars in the LRGB data. I use a QHY294MM Pro and a set of Optolong NB filters as well a s a cheapish set of LRGB filters by TS optics. I know, that the LRGB filters might not be a good choice. But I never realized these issues before with other telescopes.

This is an example of a stacked image I took of the heart nebula.
May it be, that the reflections come from the scope itself? Did you experience this as well? Is there something I can do about it? I only saw this on the LRGB data, but the NB images are much fainter and maybe this effect is much less visible there.
Thanks for your answers.
