ZWO Filters IR pass filter 1.25 inches

ZWO Filters IR pass filter 1.25″ - sharper planetary details through infrared

This IR-pass filter from ZWO is specially designed for astrophotography in the infrared spectrum. The filter blocks visible light and allows only infrared radiation with longer wavelengths to pass through. This significantly reduces the influence of atmospheric turbulence - ideal for planetary photography under less than ideal conditions.

When do you use this filter?

• For moon and planet shots with a monochrome camera
• Especially suitable for Mars, Jupiter and Saturn
• Works well in poor seeing because infrared is less affected by air vibrations

Please note that this filter is not intended for visual observation. Only cameras sensitive to infrared (such as the ZWO ASI174MM, ASI462MM or ASI585MM) can benefit from this.

What you can capture with it

✓ Sharper images of Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and the Moon
✓ Planet details in poor seeing
✓ Infrared structures on Venus or Uranus (with suitable camera)
✓ Better contrast when shooting at dusk or low in the sky
