Filters

If you'd like to enhance your astronomy experience with some colour planetary filters, why not go for the saxon 2" Colour Planetary Filter Set?

This set comes with four filters of yellow, red, dark green and blue.

• The SkyGlow filter enhances deep-sky observing in moderately light-polluted skies
• 2" eyepiece filter blocks the most common wavelengths of light pollution for increased contrast and better view quality
• SkyGlow improves the views of nebulas, galaxies and star clusters, especially when viewing in areas with light pollution from streetlights
• Ideal for backyard astronomy oberving when you don't have time to trek to a dark sky site
• 2" filter designed for use with 2" telescope eyepieces. Metal filter cell construction.

• A dimmer switch for your telescope! Helps to tone down brightness when viewing the Moon and planets to both optimize the view and reduce bright glare
• Reduced brightness and glare unmasks detail in your viewing subject and greatly improves contrast
• Adjust the amount of light transmission from 1% to 40% by rotating the eyepiece filter housing
• The filter has an anodized aluminum cell, which threads into the barrel of any 2" Orion eyepiece
• Foam-lined hard plastic filter storage case included
