No matter which camera you use, this filter’s generous 68 mm clear aperture allows it to easily accommodate today’s largest sensors. Utilizing a machined aluminum housing and Schott B270 glass, the filter replaces the RASA’s clear optical window so the RASA’s optical performance is unaltered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemove Light Pollution While Keeping Your Images Bright\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLight pollution limits how much of the night sky we can see and photograph. When imaging with a color camera in light polluted areas, skyglow degrades image quality. Light pollution filters help to selectively block light emitted from common streetlights and other ambient lighting. But most light pollution filters greatly compromise the total light throughput, causing dim images, and negatively impact the color balance, causing images to appear too green or blue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Light Pollution Imaging Filter for RASA “surgically” removes unwanted light pollution while preserving as much of the useful spectrum as possible. That means you’ll still retain over 90 percent of the light captured by your telescope at many wavelengths.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnlike other light pollution suppression filters, the Celestron LP Imaging Filter for RASA maintains a relatively neutral color balance so you can bring out subtle color in galaxies and other faint deep sky objects. Multiple layers of specially-formulated dielectric coatings provide the desired transmission, while anti-reflective coatings minimize star halos and internal reflections.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlso included is a clear plastic case to protect the filter when not in use\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndividually Tested for Quality\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEvery Celestron Light Pollution Imaging Filter is tested individually for light transmission.
