Questions & Answers

ANGELICA C : Can you use this eyepiece with the moon filter?
Shopper : will this fit a skyProdigy 90?WILLIAM B : Information on the Thousand Oaks Optical solar filters (for compatibility) can be found at the Thousand Oaks Optical website (can't post a link)ROSENDO S : I have NOT used it, But My Grandson has He IS VERY HAPPY I got It.....PHILIP L : should fit any standard threaded 1.25" eyepieceMIKE M : Yes, it will fit the eyepieces that come with the skyProdigy 90. It will fit any 1.25" threaded eyepiece.
Isaac B : How does the filter attach to the telescope? Will it attach to any eye piece?THOMAS R : Most (if not all) eyepieces have filter threads on the inside of the tube that goes into the telescope. This filter will fit the threads inside 1.25" eyepieces. If you want to make sure your eyepiece has the filter threads, just flip the eyepiece over and look into the "wrong" end. You should see the threads on the inside of the tube, right near the edge (you might need a magnifying glass to see them, though).JAMYN S : The filter is designed to screw into the lower portion of the eyepiece, provided that the eyepiece itself is threaded (most are).ERIC R : It just screws on the end of your eyepiece. It works with all of my eyepeices, check and see if there's a couple of rows at the bottom of your eyepeices to screw it in and that should do it!David P : As long as the filter is the same diameter as the eyepiece, it should easily thread onto it.KIM Q : Yes it will screw on to the end of a threaded 1.25 eyepiece or a filter wheel.CURTIS M : Attaches to 1.25" eyepiece. Has threads on both inlet and outlet so it can be stacked with other filters. It works ok but it does change the color of what you are viewing to a yellowish green.MITESH P : Yes. Most eyepiece are threaded at the bottom. It should screw onto the bottom opening of the eyepiece.JOSE P : Most eye pieces (at least all that I know) have threads in the part that you insert in the telescope. You just screw it in those threads and you are ready to go. Please make sure you are using 1.25" eye pieces (not sure if it will work on a 2" one...) It is a great filter, by the way!ABRAHAM P : The filter should screw very easily by hand into the bottom threads of any 1.25" eyepiece.FABRICE A : Yes the filter screws into the eyepiece (like most filters) and should fit all eyepieces of the same diameter.

I'd buy it again.

I have nothing to compare this item to. But I've always been happy with Celestron's products, I see no acception here.

Not as pictured

No sure it I got a faulty one or not. The image shows threads which would allow it to be used with Barlow's etc . The one I got had the glass so close to the top of the metal surround that it can't be used with cameras other filters or anything else I was hoping for

By TELLE T.

A must have for anyone observing in or near a city. This helps out a lot.

When observing the night sky, the Celestron 1.25" UHC / LPR Filter stands out as a high-quality, durable accessory designed to enhance your stargazing experience. This filter is expertly crafted to selectively reduce the transmission of wavelengths associated with artificial light pollution, such as those from mercury vapor and sodium vapor lights, as well as the pervasive glow from neutral oxygen emission in our atmosphere. The result is a significantly darker sky background, providing a stark canvas for the vibrant contrast of emission nebulae and other celestial bodies.

The ultra high contrast (UHC) feature of this LPR filter marks a substantial improvement over standard broadband filters, allowing for a more pronounced distinction between the cosmic objects you're observing and the sky itself. The advanced coating technologies employed in the construction of this filter ensure an exceptional light transmission rate of over 97% across the entire bandpass, effectively blocking the intrusive light pollution lines that can detract from your viewing experience.

Ideal for both urban astronomers contending with light-polluted environments and rural stargazers looking to boost the contrast of nebulae against an already dark backdrop, the Celestron 1.25" UHC / LPR Filter is a versatile tool in any astrophotographer's or telescope enthusiast's kit. Its compatibility with a wide range of cameras and telescopes makes it a practical choice for enhancing the quality of your celestial observations and astrophotography pursuits.

In summary, the Celestron 1.25" UHC / LPR Filter is an effective, versatile, and affordable solution for anyone looking to minimize the impact of light pollution and maximize the beauty of the night sky. With its high rating and the reputation of Celestron, this filter is a reliable addition to your astronomy equipment, promising clearer, more detailed images and a superior observation experience.

Celestron 1.25 inch UHC / LPR Filter Features

  • The multi-layer dielectric coatings are plasma assisted and Ionbeam hardened using the latest technology for durability and resistance to scratching.
  • Improved transmission translates to maximum image brightness and contrast. Users of smaller, 4"-11" telescopes will especially appreciate the high efficiency, and larger scope users will love the rich star fields and detailed subtle nebular shadings that are left intact.
  • The high transmission, sharp cutoffs, and more moderate 60nm passband of the UHC/LPR filter retains a more natural view, yet significantly boosts overall contrast. Imagers will appreciate the broader bandpass and inclusion of an extremely efficient H-Alpha passband (656nm)

Warranty Information

This product has a limited warranty of 24 months for parts and 24 months for labor.
