Premium 1.25'' Skylum Filter

Would you like to be able to enjoy more detail and contrast during your observations of the Moon and planets, but without them looking artificial? Well, the Omegon Skylum filter is the perfect solution for your eyepiece, because it magnifies bright objects with red and blue tones, which will allow you to see Jupiter's rings much better or identify many more details on the surface of Mars, for example.

Summary of advantages:

• Great contrast on Jupiter and Mars: red details are considerably enhanced
• Deep sky objects: better contrast in nebulae and galaxies
• Ideal for small telescopes: always a clear and sharp image through the eyepiece
• 1.25" filter with filter thread
• Also suitable for astrophotography

The expert in all the sky
You will no longer have to stop and think about which filter is correct to see your celestial objects. The Skylum filter is a universal talent suitable for countless objects, because it darkens the background sky and enhances the bluest and redst tones. In addition, it allows you to identify more bright details in the reddish nebulae. It couldn't be said more clearly: it creates the right Skyglow effect.

Although this filter primarily increases contrast, it also exerts a slight attenuating effect that provides an extra boost when observing the thinnest phases of the Moon or, in the case of the brightest planets, helps to avoid glare. But what does it bring to you? Well, from now on you will be able to see these celestial objects with a much greater level of detail.

Against artificial light
Like nebula filters, the Skylum only lets certain wavelengths through while minimizing stray light. In addition, it blocks light from city night lighting, coming, for example, from sodium vapor discharge lamps. With this, the light of the celestial object you are observing will appear more intense.

For large and small telescopes
The Skylum filter offers great light transmittance. That is why it is so suitable for observation in full view with telescopes, whether large or small. The results are good even in 80 mm telescopes.

The "beautifying" filter of star clusters and galaxies
Stars shining like diamonds on black velvet? It could be... But the truth is that from the city the sky often looks more like a grayish concrete wall. Don't get discouraged! Simply place the Skylum filter in your eyepiece and delight in star clusters and galaxies. You will see the sky darker and its celestial objects much more beautiful.
