The Vespera Dual Band Filter is a dual narrowband interference filter that will significantly improve your photo quality whether you are viewing from an urban or natural environment.By selecting very precisely the wavelengths of Hydrogen Alpha (H-alpha) and Oxygen III (O-III), found mainly in nebulae, the filter increases the contrast between the Stellar object and the sky background. Images made using this filter are of higher quality, with sharper stars and finer detail.Significantly improves image qualityIdeal for nebula photographyIncreases the contrast between the sky background and the stellar objectRefines stars and detailsKeep only the essentialThe Dual Band filter has been designed to allow only two particular wavelengths to pass through to the Vespera sensor: O-III H-alphaDue to the filtered wavelengths, it is particularly effective for photographing nebulae in emission (e.g., Orion nebula M42, Heart nebula IC 1805 ), dark nebulae endowed with hydrogen (e.g., Horsehead or Elephants Trunk nebula ), planetary nebulae (e.g., Owl nebula M97, Dumbbell nebula M27 ), supernova remnants (e.g., Veil nebula, Crab Nebula M1 ).For globular clusters (e.g., Hercules cluster M13, cluster M92 ), the Dual Band filter's selectivity will help you obtain sharper stars.A filter specifically designed for VesperaOur engineers have specifically studied the optical quality of the Dual Band filter to offer use at full aperture without any impact on the optical diameter of the instrument. The lens ring has an electronic micro-card that allows Vespera to detect the Dual Band filter and adapt its observation and image processing parameters.Transmission curveThe filter features 12nm of bandwidth in each wavelength (O-III = 500.7nm, H-alpha = 656.3nm).
