ASTROVID SolarCam™ CCD VIDEO CAMERA USING YOUR ASTROVID SolarCam™ (Part 3 Hydrogen-alpha Prominence Detail): -5- 1. Solar prominences are imaged in Hydrogen alpha light. Solar prominences are much dimmer than the surface detail found on the sun. 2. The majority of observed solar prominences do not change in appearance very quickly. However, you may be able to find one of the changes morphology in rapid time. 3. Gain becomes the more important parameter in imagi
