About SBIG 1.25"" Baader UV+IR
Are you seeking to enhance your photography experience with a high-quality, reliable accessory Look no further than the Baader 1.25" UV+IR Blocking Filter, a versatile and effective tool for any photographer. This durable filter is more than just a luminance filter; it's a crucial component in capturing clear, accurate images by blocking both ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) light.
Designed to be used with ST-2000XCM color cameras, this filter significantly improves color balance in single-shot color CCDs by effectively blocking near IR light. This feature is particularly beneficial when shooting wide field images with a typical 35mm camera lens, as it prevents the 'out of focus' near IR light that can cause stars to appear bloated.
Easy to use, the Baader 1.25" UV+IR Blocking Filter can be conveniently placed behind a camera lens adapter, making it a versatile addition to your photography equipment. Manufactured by Sbig, a reputable brand known for its high-quality photography equipment, this filter is a reliable choice for both professional photographers and hobbyists alike. Enhance your photography with the Baader 1.25" UV+IR Blocking Filter, and experience the difference in image quality for yourself.
