The finest solar filters available featuring Astro Solar Safety Film which is clear and homogenous and attains the optical performance of high quality plane-parallel glass filters and it is diffraction limited! The double-sided metal coatings have a uniform density and excellent colour balance across the entire field ensuring razor sharp images from edge to edge.



The Sun appears in its real colour, a neutral white, not blue or orange, and the sky adjacent to the solar limb is jet black.

Its rating is ND-5 which means that the film transmits 1/100,000 of visible light (.001%) while reflecting (blocking) 99.999%of unwanted light. The film absorbs all ultraviolet rays while coating reflects infrared light rendering both absolutely harmless. For added assurance, Baader Astro Solar film has been declared safe for direct solar viewing by the German National Bureau of Standards for eye safety.
