The Astronomik CLS Filter (not IR blocked) is the best deep sky and general purpose filter and one of my favourites.
This broadband light pollution filter works on all objects for both visual use, and imaging with standard and Baader modded DSLR cameras.
Blocks Sodium, Mercury and air-glow emission.
Can also be used as an effective minus violet filter by refractor owners.
Not UV / IR blocked.
The Astronomik Luminance Filter (L-2) is a high quality UV / IR block filter suitable for most instruments except refractors with imperfect colour correction.
The Astronomik CLS CCD Filter IR Blocked has all the benefits of the standard CLS CCD filter but with IR blocking built in.
This broadband light pollution filter works on all objects and can be used visually and for imaging with CCD and plain glass (full spectrum) modded DSLR cameras.
The IR Pro (742nm) Filter pushes the passband of the Baader and Altair IR pass filters further into the Infra Red. At these longer wavelengths, planetary images are much less disturbed by distortions in the atmosphere.
This is the best “Planet Killer” filter, based on research by Astronomik to determine the optimal passband for enhanced Planetary Imaging, with most amateur equipment.
Sensitivity of most CCD cameras is still fairly high in this region so smaller scopes (>5″) can benefit.
Comparison between Baader UV/IR cut and Astronomik IR Pro 742 filters
The Astronomik H-Alpha CCD Filter 12nm enables high contrast imaging of emission nebulae, even with full moonlight or in light polluted areas.
The Astronomik LRGB Type 2c Colour Filter Set contains 4 x Individual Filters.
Luminance – Red – Green – Blue
Used to create high quality colour composites with monochrome cameras.
These filters are well priced high quality dichroic LRGB filter sets.
The Astronomik H-Alpha CCD Filter 6nm enables high contrast imaging of emission nebulae, even with full moonlight or in light polluted areas.
The contrasts between objects that glow in the H-alpha light and the sky background are greatly enhanced.
The 6nm H-alpha filter dramatically increases the contrast between hydrogen fog and the sky background.
The Astronomik EOS Clip to 2 inch M48 Filter Adapter lets you use your Astronomik EOS clip filters easily with eyepieces and cameras. The adapter accepts your clip filters and converts them to M48 male thread.
The Astronomik SII CCD Filter 12nm enables high contrast imaging of gas nebulae even in moonlight or light polluted areas.
The Astronomik OIII CCD Filter 6nm dramatically increases the contrast between hydrogen fog and the sky background.
Due to the combination of low half-width and high transmission of almost 100% in the area of the OIII line, the filter delivers a maximum signal in the desired wavelength, but blocks all other radiation and thus ensures an extremely dark sky background.
Astronomik UHC Filter – This filter was designed for the visual observation of emission and planetary nebulae but also works very well for imaging these objects, as a dual type filter, if used with an IR block. The IR block can be either inbuilt, as with a DSLR, or in combination. The Astronomik L3 type luminance filter gives particularly good results. Price includes delivery.
Astronomik MC-Clear for Canon EOS 1000D, 40D-250D, 450D-800D, 7D, M For Full-Spectrum Modification of Canon EOS DSLRs. Special glass for retrofitting Canon® EOS DSLR cameras to achieve the full spectral sensitivity of the CMOS sensor. Price includes UK delivery.
This Astronomik SII CCD Filter 6nm is suitable for photographing SII regions from artificially polluted areas as well as places with dark skies. The contrasts between objects that glow in the light of the sulfur line at 672nm and the sky background are greatly enhanced.
The 6nm SII-CCD filter dramatically increases the contrast between hydrogen fog and the sky background.
The Astronomik OIII CCD Filter 12nm enables high contrast imaging of planetary nebulae even with moonlight or in light polluted areas.
Please note this is the CCD filter which unlike the cheaper “visual” version does not pass Infra-red light!
The Astronomik Luminance Filter (L-3) is a high quality UV / IR block filter designed for users of Refractors with less than perfect colour correction, especially when used with the latest cameras. In combination with Deep-Sky RGB filters it will minimise bluish halos around stars.
Astronomik IR Pro (807nm) Filter – This filter extends the IR passband much deeper into the IR.
These very long wavelengths allow planetary imaging in poorer seeing conditions than normal.
The sensitivity of most CCD cameras is reduced in this region so scopes of over 8″ aperture draw the most benefit.
