• The best visual and photographic filter for contrast enhancement for all telescopes, without loss of image brightness!
• The effect of the element neodymium as filter material is very impressive. When added to optical glass, it enhances contrast, enhances the red colour in the image (especially with Mars and Jupiter) and it darkens the spectral region which is particularly marked by street lamp light, which is the biggest contributor to the nightly "Skyglow".
• Planoptically polished and MC-coated – with IR-cut coatings!, without any loss of sharpness as a single filter in front of a binocular or be used for afocal projection with digital cameras (far from the focal point!)

• Baader H-alpha Ultra-Narrowband Filter – Premium Grade
• 3.5 nm FWHM (to harmonize the exposure time with O-III / S-II), recommended for optical systems from > f/3.4
• For highest contrast even at strongest light pollution, minimizes star size, emphasizes finest nebula detail – indispensable under Bortle 9/8/7/(6) skies
• Reflex-Blocker™ hard coated and planeoptically polished – with sealed coating edges (Life-Coat™)
• Blackened edges all around, with filter-lead-side-indicator in the form of a telescope-sided black outer rim

We explicitly warn against observing the sun with a DeepSky 3.5 nm (equivalent to 35 Ångstroem) H-alpha narrowband filter, specialized solar chromosphere and prominence filters from SolarSpectrum start at 0.8 Ångstroem. Photographic experiments with a camera are theoretically possible, but by no means observe the sun with naked eyes – you endanger your eyesight!
