FILTERS

Eyepiece filters are an invaluable aid in lunar and planetary observing. They reduce glare and light scattering, increase contrast through selective filtration, increase definition and resolution, reduce irradiation and lessen eye fatigue.

Celestron’s filters are made of high quality, solid plane parallel glass with excel- lent homogeneity. They’re anti-reflection coated to prevent glaring and ghosting. All eyepiece filters are threaded to fit Celestron’s, and most other manufacturer’s, 11/4" eyepieces, and offer a full 26mm clear aperture.

Celestron filters are mounted in black anodized aluminum cells with the Kodak Wratten Series Number individually engraved, and come with a plastic case for safe storage. The cells

of each filter are double-threaded, so they can be stacked (piggybacked) in various combinations. This allows you to create different color combinations and transmission charac- teristics, or to have the same color characteristic, but with a lower transmis-

sion. When stacking color filters, the effective transmission of the combination you create is equal to the product of the spectral transmission of each of the filters used.

The effectiveness of the filters depends on several factors, including: the aperture and focal length of the telescope, the magnification being used, and seeing conditions.

Following, you’ll find descriptions of all of Celestron’s eyepiece filters and what you can expect from them in different viewing situations. Some of these filters are available individually, and others are available in convenient four filter sets Celestron has put together to affordably expand your range of observing options.

You’ll find the information on these filters arranged in the following color cate- gories: Yellow, Orange, Red, Blue, Green and Violet. In each category, the informa- tion that applies to all of the filters within that color group is listed, then specific information for each filter is broken out into a separate category, where applicable. This way, you’ll know what to expect from each of Celestron’s color filters. At the same time, you’ll become familiar with the astounding variety of enhancements available through these simple accessories.
