Over the years, Baader Planetarium has become synonymous with high-quality astronomical equipment, and their AstroSolar Safety Film Visual, measuring 7.9x11.4" (20x29cm), is no exception. This superior solar filter material is designed to provide unparalleled white light views of the Sun, offering an exceptional viewing experience for astronomy enthusiasts and photographers alike.
The AstroSolar Safety Film Visual is renowned for its ability to reveal intricate solar details that are often missed by other objective solar filters. It allows you to observe fine penumbral detail, solar granulation, and lighter colored faculae with clarity and precision. The Sun's disk is beautifully contrasted against a dark background, eliminating the common issues of haze and scatter that are often associated with 'mylar' films or inexpensive glass filters.
This premium quality foil is specifically intended for solar viewing with optical instruments such as telescopes, binoculars, and cameras. It's important to note that the AstroSolar Safety Film 5.0 is not authorized for naked eye solar observation or the production of solar viewers. For those interested in direct solar viewing without the use of telescope, binocular, or camera optics, we recommend our EN ISO 12312-2:2015 certified Baader Solar Viewers, which are equipped with AstroSolar Silver/Gold Film.
In summary, the Baader Planetarium's AstroSolar Safety Film Visual is a must-have for anyone seeking to explore the Sun's intricate details with unmatched clarity and precision. Whether you're an amateur astronomer, a professional photographer, or a science educator, this product is designed to enhance your solar viewing experience.
