FEATURES:

• Multi-layers anti-reflection coating
• Non-cementing optical substrate coating
• Electron-beam gun evaporation with Ion-assisted deposition coating technology for durability and resistance to scratching, as well as stability on CWL(central wavelength) no deviation affected by temperature change
• Planetary rotation system offers precision and homogeneity of coatings ensuring high value on transmission of pass-band and Optical density of off-band

• Ultra-thin filter cell minimize vignetting by maximize possible clear aperture (clear aperture is 26mm for 1.25”; 45mm for 2”)
• Aerometal Material, Precise CNC Machining, Sand Blasting Process, Black Anodized Finish, Extinction Treatment to Prevent Reflection, Laser Engraving No Fading.

DESCRIPTION:

The CLS-CCD broadband filter is designed to improve the visibility of various deepsky objects. By selectively reducing the transmission of wavelengths of light pollutants, specifically those produced by artificial lightings including mercury vapor lamps, both high & low pressure sodium vapor lights and the unwanted natural light caused by neutral oxygen emission in our atmosphere (i.e. skyglow). Together with the highly transparent in main nebula emission lines at OIII(496nm and 500nm), H-beta (486nm), NII(654nm and 658nm), H-alpha(656nm) as well as SII(672nm), the filter is suitable for enhancing the contrast and details for photographic purpose at light pollution area.

APPLICATION:

• CLS-CCD is different from CLS with infrared wavelength 700-1100nm cut-off
• Fit with color CCD cameras and modified DSLRs for astrophotography
• Work well on most emission nebulae, planetary nebulae and supernova remnants
• Noticeable boost in contrast and visibility of the fainter outer detail
• Light pollution filter do not eliminate the effects of light pollution or increase the object’s brightness. In many cases, they increase the contrast between nebula and night sky, not brightening the nebula.

Size

Standard 1.25” & 2” | Round 36mm Unmounted | Clip Filter Series

Note : This filter is not designed for sun observation. DO NOT LOOK AT THE SUN WITH THIS FILTER. You would be BLIND if you fail to observe the warning.

Note: For Solar observation use high quality solar film ie BAADER Solar film or Solar filter along with this filter.
