Home Filters Light Pollution Filters OVL 1.25 Inch Light Pollution Filter
This 1.25" contrast-enhancing anodized aluminium, optical glass filter is designed to block out the wavelengths of light emitted by mercury-vapour light and other common causes of light pollution, whilst providing higher transmission at critical hydrogen-alpha and hydrogen-beta lines than competing filters. Bright, light-polluted skies appear much darker, and the contrast between object and sky is improved significantly. This contrast-enhancement effect is particularly apparent on nebulae. Unlike stars, emission nebulae give off light in a very narrow range of wavelengths. Great Nebula FilterThese filters allow maximum transmission of the important wavelengths of H-alpha, H-beta and doubly ionized oxygen - the ones most commonly emitted by nebulae. Explore the Orion, Dumbell and Ring Nebula with added contrast and detail.Ideal for any size TelescopeViews of galaxies and star clusters are also enhanced, but to a lesser degree. Also improves contrast on reddish planetary detail. Works well in telescopes of all apertures but is highly recommended for use on smaller as well as larger telescopes where narrower band filters are less suitable and swallow up too much light. Supplied with storage case and simply screws into any 1.25" eyepiece or accessory with a standard filter thread.
