Why use color filters?

Color filters reduce the effects of:
✓ Irradiation - Blurring of boundaries between light and dark areas on the Moon and planets caused by atmospheric disturbance and contrast differences.
✓ Low contrast levels - Color filters help distinguish subtle surface textures, such as the separation of yellowish and greenish areas on Mars.

With the right filter choice, you can:
✓ Small craters in Clavius perceive better
✓ See more details in the cloud bands of Jupiter
✓ The inner crépe ring of Saturn distinguished

Depending on atmospheric conditions, color filters can offer subtle or dramatic improvements in visibility.
