Yesterday I couldn't resist and went to the dacha before fully recovering. It's a pity, the clear sky is being wasted.
In the evening rush, instead of the UV/IR Cut, I put the Svbony CLS filter into the filter drawer - they come in similar boxes. As a result, I shot with it all night, wondering why the stars were bloated (FWHM~4) and the flats had a strange color balance. Of course, the stars were bloated. I only discovered the mistake in the morning when I started disassembling the setup...
But I managed to somewhat correct the result with Starnet++, though the nebulae, obviously, showed up more and I like the color.
