It is 5-Position 1.25" Filter Wheel For Telecope. and high-quality telescope filter wheel allows you to quickly and easily change.A huge time-saver for filtered planetary and lunar observation using different color filters, or for tri-color astrophotography pursuits. Included 5-Position 1.25" Filter Wheel lets you install all filters and then dial-in the 1.25" filter you want to use for a particular astrophotographic exposure. The filters can be changed very quickly at any time.

The robustly constructed filter wheel is supplied with a 1.25" eyepiece adaptor, 1.25" focuser nosepiece, T-2 camera adaptor and locking ring. The filter wheel can be attached to your focuser either by the supplied 1.25" nosepiece adaptor or via a T-thread. It is ideally suitable for visual observations with 1.25" eyepieces. and with the included T2 adapter it is also perfectly suitable for astrophotography with single lens reflex cameras and CCD cameras.

Keep in mind that use of the Multiple Filter Wheel requires 23mm of inward focus travel. This will not be a problem for most telescope designs, but could be a problem for Newtonian reflectors. The included T2 adapter comes with a locking ring, whereby high-precision distance regulation becomes possible.Its very sturdy aluminum housing makes it also suitable for heavy cameras.

1.25" O-III Filter greatly enhances contrast during visual observation of gaseous and planetary nebulae in all sky conditions. Astrophotographic 1.25" filter allows high-contrast imaging even in areas with strong light pollution.

Especially useful for large aperture telescopes through which the light of the Moon can be extremely overwhelming. Allowing just for the Double Ionized Oxygen lines between 496mm to 501nm to pass through at 95%.

Completely blocks virtually all other visible wavelengths of light so views of nebulas are optimized. Increases contrast through selective filtration-Anti-reflection coated to prevent glaring and ghosting.

Nebula filter for increasing contrast, also suitable for use with smaller telescopes.

Many objects only first become visible at all when using an UHC filter. But also, highlights such as the Orion, Lagoon or Swan nebulae, show a whole new side to them.

Can be used at both light-polluted and dark sky sites. Blocks the light from mercury and sodium-vapour lamps.

The Moon & Skyglow is a multi-bandpass filter transmitting a high percentage of light in the visual spectrum.

The filter is made with a special Neodymium glass that effectively filters out selective wavelengths of low-pressure sodium and other man-made sources typically used in street lighting.

It enhances contrast of all reddish details and so this filter can also be used for planetary viewing, as well as of blue details.

2" O-III Filter greatly enhances contrast during visual observation of gaseous and planetary nebulae in all sky conditions. Astrophotographic 2" filter allows high-contrast imaging even in areas with strong light pollution.

Especially useful for large aperture telescopes through which the light of the Moon can be extremely overwhelming. Allowing just for the Double Ionized Oxygen lines between 496nm to 501nm to pass through at 95%.

Completely blocks virtually all other visible wavelengths of light so views of nebulas are optimized. Increases contrast through selective filtration-Anti-reflection coated to prevent glaring and ghosting.

A must-have to safely observe without damaging your eyes - optical filter fits snugly over your telescope's aperture to block 99.9% of incoming light.

This filter features an inside diameter of 75mm - it is designed to fit optical tubes with an outer diameter of 70mm to 92mm,the outer diameter of filter is 100mm.

The filter meets ISO 12312-2: 2015 and Amazon has verified the security. Baader Astro film in a sturdy aluminum cell.

Nebula filter for increasing contrast, also suitable for use with smaller telescopes.

Many objects only first become visible at all when using an UHC filter. But also, highlights such as the Orion, Lagoon or Swan nebulae, show a whole new side to them.

Can be used at both light-polluted and dark sky sites. Blocks the light from mercury and sodium-vapour lamps.

Metal filter cell threads directly into the 1.25- inch barrel of your telescope eyepiece.

Mounted in a nicely anodized housing.

Perfectly neutral color will not alter the natural color of the Moon.

Metal filter cell threads directly into the 2- inch barrel of your telescope eyepiece.

Mounted in a nicely anodized housing.

Perfectly neutral color will not alter the natural color of the Moon.

Metal filter cell threads directly into 1.25- inch telescope eyepiece barrels.

Provides a brighter view than the 13 percent Moon filter by blocking less light - ideal for use with smaller telescopes.

A specialty Moon filter especially useful for increasing contrast during waning and waxing crescent phases.

Take your astrophotography to the next level with this filter. All filters in the set block ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) wavelengths for higher contrast CCD images.

The ASTROMANIA LRGB Filter Set includes four filters, 2" luminance Filter, 2" Red Filter, 2" Green Filter 2" Blue Filter. This LRGB filter set allows you to use your monochrome CCD camera to put together high resolution colour images.

Combining separate images taken through these filters produces finer resolution and amazing color. Red, blue, and green filters plus the haze-eliminating Luminance filter give you stunning results.

Filter with metal mount 1.25" filter threads on both sides.

Executes with a transmission of over 90% and completely rejects light pollution.

The high optical quality of the Astromania filters guarantees no loss in sharpness or contrast.

This Optics custom designed filter is well suited for a variety of telescopes and objects.

The design yields a filter with a very symmetrical shape and high optical throughput, for maximum enhancement of nebula with a minimum of loss of stars in the field of view.

The high optical quality of the Astromania filters guarantees no loss in sharpness or contrast.

1.25- inch Moon and Skyglow Filter is Skyglow is a multi-bandpass filter transmitting a high percentage of light in the visual spectrum.

The Skyglow filter absorbs more light at longer wavelengths and therefore increases viewing contrast.

Reduces Glare and improves definition so you can see the moons features much more clearly.

A filter with incredible light pollution cut off characteristics.

The new H-Alpha passfilter enables high-contrast deep sky images of H-II regions.

The H-Alpha filter shares the same outstanding features as all the other Astromania imaging filters.

Nebula filter for increasing contrast, also suitable for use with smaller telescopes.

Many objects only first become visible at all when using an UHC filter. But also, highlights such as the Orion, Lagoon or Swan nebulae, show a whole new side to them.

Can be used at both light-polluted and dark sky sites. Blocks the light from mercury and sodium-vapour lamps.
