• 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.

• Universal Base ring: fits Baader Tripod-Adapters onto short Steel-Pillar III
• Hole diameter 77mm, 6x M5 inner threads

• Low profile adapter 2"i to T-2a, featuring just 1.5mm optical length
• changes a 2" SC (50,8mm) male thread into a fixed T-2 (M42x0.75) male thread
• allows shortest possible rigid T-2 adaptation onto any 2"SC-thread. Ideal to mount a T-2 (Zeiss-norm) TQC/TCR HeavyDuty Quick-Changer-System #2456322
• as option for a rotatable SC/T-2 connection we recommend #2958500B SC/HD Ultrashort T-Adapter, featuring 7mm optical

• Fixed focal length of 13mm, 68° field of view – ease of view even at high magnifications!
• High quality Phantom Group-Coating in Zeiss class for complete freedom from reflections with maximum contrast
• 1¼" and 2" barrels included, thus variable focal lengths
• Includes many threads for camera and accessory adaptation, afocal and classical eyepiece projection is possible

• Astro T-2 System spacer (Fine-Adjustment) rings, available in thickness 0,3mm (black), 0,5mm (red), 1mm (gold)
• Very thin ring for finetuning in T-2 eyepiece projection
• Rings with T-2 inner diameter without threads
• Fits between all T-2 threads, equals approx. 2/5 (0,3mm), 2/3 (0,5mm) respectively 1 1/3 (1mm) turn of rotation. Rotation may differ slightly.
• Prevents binding between two T-2 threaded parts

• O-III Super-G filter with 9 nm FWHM and a maximum transmission of 97%.
• For visual and photographic observation of planetary nebulae and supernova remnants, even with small telescopes
• Can be used as a "Super-G filter"  replacement for RGB photography. While regular G-filters suffer from bad seeing due to air turbulences, the narrow range of 9 nm passes less thermal noise, i.e. sharper images. Nevertheless, the transmission window is large enough not to be considered a pure narrowband filter.
• CMOS-optimized coating technolog with much steeper slopes of the filter passband - for increased contrast, longer life and to avoid reflections.

• to connect to Skywatcher Refractors with M90x1 outer threads
• only suitable for BDS-RT Diamond Steeltrack® for Refractors
• Also fits RC telescopes with M90 thread, but may require an extension, otherwise the BDS-RT Steeltrack may not retract completely. See also the application picture and the following review of the BDS-RT Steeltrack: Fitting a 2-inch BDS-RT Baader Diamond Steeltrack Focuser to a Teleskop-Service GSO 8-inch Ritchey-Chretien

• Glasspathcorrector Factor 1,25. Focus gain: ca. 20mmInsert diameter: ∅ 38 mm
• Suitable to insert into the Baader MaxBright^® II Binoviewer or Mark V Großfeld (Giant)-Binocular (#2456410 , € 1425,-)
• A Baader Glaspathcorrector is not a Barlow lens! The reason for this name (in Germany the name Glaswegkorrektor^® is a protected trademark by Baader Planetarium) is only secondly the displacement of the focal point
• A Glaspathcorrector is primarily intended to correct the prismatic color fringing that occurs on Refractors due to the high amount of glasses used in binocular prisms
• Please note: The Baader MaxBright® II Binoviewer with case (#2456460 , € 479,-) is the only Baader-Bino where you can choose between Zeiss ring-dovetail and T-2 thread adapter.
