Overcome the challenges of astrophotography with the 1.25" Round S-II f/2 Highspeed Filter with LPFC Mount, a high-quality, durable, and innovative product from the reputable brand, Baader Planetarium. This effective and reliable filter is specifically designed to meet the intricate needs of extremely fast astrograph optics, such as Hyperstar and RASA.
Unlike conventional narrowband filters that often result in significant transmission loss due to strong CWL-shift, this filter features a CWL-preshift that perfectly aligns with f/2 to f/3 optics. This unique feature prevents the CWL from shifting out of the FWHM, even in extreme cases, ensuring optimal performance and image quality.
The filter's FWHM is meticulously optimized to deliver maximum contrast, despite the typical line broadening associated with fast optical trains. This makes it an ideal choice for capturing high contrast images of emission nebulae, even when using fast optics.
For photographers aiming to use optics between f/1.8 and f/3.5, this filter offers a dramatic improvement over regular sets of narrowband filters. It effectively blocks certain wavelengths of light and allows only specific ones to pass through, providing precise control over colors and contrast in your images.
Whether you're an astrophotographer aiming to capture detailed images of celestial objects or a professional photographer looking to achieve specific color effects or block unwanted light sources, the 1.25" Round S-II f/2 Highspeed Filter with LPFC Mount is a reliable and effective tool to enhance your photography experience.
