Light red color filter 1.25 inches - Omegon #23A

This light red color filter from Omegon in 1.25-inch format is ideal for observing Mars and other planets where strong contrast is desired. The red color makes subtle structures more visible, such as polar caps, dust storms and dark areas on the Martian surface. In addition, the filter can also be used for visual observation of the moon at low altitude or when the moonlight is bright.

The filter mount is made of precision machined anodized aluminum. With a very thin profile, this mount prevents shadowing and diffraction. The glass is completely homogeneous and multi-coated to ensure clear and high-contrast image quality. Thanks to the double thread, the filter can be combined with other filters. The filter comes in a sturdy protective box.
