This light blue 2-inch color filter from Omegon is a subtle filter ideal for observing fine details on planets. On Jupiter and Saturn, it enhances contrast in cloud bands and makes small storm regions and structures more visible. For Mars, it helps to better distinguish polar caps and clouds or haze around the planet’s edge. With the Moon, this filter provides a calmer image with extra sharpness along the terminator, without too much light loss.
The glass is fully colored and mounted in a sturdy anodized aluminum housing with a thickness of only 5 mm. Thanks to this thin design, the filter fits easily in filter wheels and star diagonals. The double filter thread makes it possible to combine filters for specific observations. The filter comes in a sturdy protective case.
