Omegon Solar Filter for 150mm Telescope
You observe stars at night. But what if you could see equally impressive images during the day? The Omegon solar filter for 150mm telescope turns your telescope into a safe solar observation instrument – in just seconds.
No loose parts, no fiddling: this filter comes fully pre-mounted in a sturdy plastic frame. Simply slide it into your telescope tube opening (168-172mm inner diameter) or attach it to the outside (160-164mm outer diameter) – done. This filter is even suitable for Newtonian telescopes, with cutouts for spider vane supports.
What makes this filter truly special is the original Baader AstroSolar ND5 film. It shows the sun in neutral white light, not orange or yellow. And your eyes stay protected: only 0.001% of sunlight passes through. This lets you see crystal clear what’s normally invisible.
✓ Sunspots moving across the surface
✓ Solar flares and bright faculae fields
✓ Fine granulation at the edge of the solar disk
✓ Track solar eclipses in real-time
✓ And yes, even photograph all of this
Not using an Omegon Basic? No problem. Just measure the front of your telescope tube. If it falls within the mentioned dimensions, this filter will almost always fit. Otherwise, use some self-adhesive felt or foam to make it fit. Check the solar filter table under “Downloads” to see at a glance if this filter matches your telescope.
This solar filter adds a completely new dimension to your telescope. Not just stars, but our own star – the Sun – suddenly becomes fascinating to observe. And you can do it safely, easily, and clearly.
