  • AstroSolar® Safety Film 5.0 for solar observation and photography at high magnification, telescope quality, Optical Density (OD) = 5.0
  • Safe for visual solar observation (with additional optics) and imaging
  • This highest precision film consistently produces strehl ratios of 94 to 96 percent at interferometric tests – thus it performs optically like a Fluorite Triplet Lens by Carl Zeiss or Astro Physics
  • AstroSolar Safety Film is best suited for precision work with all astronomical telescopes and binoculars – just as well as for all photographic camera- and tele-lenses
  • For more than 25 years on the market, the only film-material made to not deteriorate the optical wavefront, it does allow to attain high magnification with any long-range optics without reducing sharpness or contrast of the solar surface.

Can I use AstroSolar films at deep temperatures

Hello, I'm very confused with regards to what I should be buying in regards to your solar filters. I have 20x80 "Astro observing Binoculars" and I'd like to make covers to view the Sun. I have no other filters or optics for the Binos just the standard out of box binoculars. Would your Safety Film be the appropriate product to use? I've gotten confused reading about "standards" as the Safety Film is not according to certain websites ISO 12312-2 certified but your 'Silver/Gold' film is. Could you please clarify, thank you.

Now that the sun is active again, I would like to begin using my refracting telescope with my Baader Astro solar visual filter. I purchased the filter material in 2011 and built my own cell. I used it successfully all through the previous solar cycle with last use in 2017. I have always stored the filter assembly in a plastic case to avoid damage. My question is does Baader Astro Solar film deteriorate with age? Is it still safe to use? What test should I perform before using it visually?

In description of Solar Viewer AstroSolar® Silver/Gold (film for naked eye without telescope) you mention 100% UV-protection and 100% IR-protection. Does also AstroSolar® Safety Film OD 5.0 which is for use for high magnifications with telescope, protects 100% from UV and IR radiation ?

Gute Beratung und ein bewährtes Produkt
Bei Baader Planetarium habe ich ausnahmslos gute Erfahrungen gemacht - auch wieder bei diesem Kauf und dem Produkt. Das fängt schon mit den zahlreichen Informationen im neuen Webshop an und geht bis zum schnellen Versand und dem problemlosen Einkauf. Was will man mehr?!

Multispectral solar imaging technique with Baader Astrosolar
Photosphere and limb are a combination of white light solar terrestrial peaks and NIR. Chromosphere and Corona flows are primarily NIR.

Stack and align two images taken less than 15 seconds apart (otherwise there is blurring).

Gimp: Grain extract, copy result as new layer - color curves, bisect the spike. Contrast and brightness to your liking.

The Sun is never boring. Enjoy the plasma zoo.
  • Inexpensive and excellent quality
  • none

Good solar foil
Overall very satisfied: delivery was quick, foil works as described (OD5, makes great pictures of the sun without damaging your camera). Instructions of making your own filter were useful & accurate.

Einfach und effektiv
Die Folie ist einfach zu handhaben, zuzuschneoden und zu verkleben, um daraus passgenaue Filter selbstzu basteln.

Astro-Solar-Folie Merkurtransit 2016-05-09
Der von mir gebastelte Filter mit dieser Folie hat mir die einwandfreie Beobachtung des Merkurtransits mit einem 4″-Maksutow erlaubt. Die Fotographien (meiner Tochter, 18J.) dieses Ereignisses sind recht gut gelungen.
