As such, it is great for viewing planetary nebulae and supernovae remnants.It’s available in 1.25″ or 2″ mounted format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBackground\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe first thing you’ll notice is that these filters are produced for us in Germany by Astronomik. Tele Vue and Astronomik are two relatively small companies that adhere to the same philosophy. Do it better, or don’t do it at all; the products, customer, and night sky deserve it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDavid Nagler and Gerd Neumann had crossed paths at astronomy shows for years. Both have had their frustrations with the filter business. From passband to thread tolerances, the filter industry seems like the “wild west” of astronomical products. We had been looking to develop a long-term supplier of state-of-the-art, custom filters and approached Astronomik with the idea of reintroducing Tele Vue’s line of premium quality Bandmate filters; guaranteed to perform and fit, with uniformity beyond any competitive brand. Gerd and Eric of Astronomik were excited with the idea of a partnership with Tele Vue. “When we started into Amateur-Astronomy, Tele Vue already was a legendary brand known for its outstanding quality of their telescopes and eyepieces. Today we are proud to team up with them to share our knowledge and experience in filter design and production and bring the best filters possible to all astronomers worldwide.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe distinction you’ll find with Bandmate filters is their consistency, achieved by keeping control of the manufacturing and quality control processes each company does so well. All the materials are sourced in Germany. Each filter is: optically tested by Tele Vue in high power-space to ensure no image degradation, tested by Astronomik on a spectrograph to ensure the coating meets design specifications, mechanically tested for fit, cosmetically inspected for pinholes, digs, and sleeks and serialized, all to insure customer satisfaction. All filters are backed with a 10-year warranty against manufacturing defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv aria-labelledby=\"tab-title-local_1\" role=\"tabpanel\" id=\"tab-local_1\" class=\"woocommerce-Tabs-panel woocommerce-Tabs-panel--local_1 panel entry-content\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize: 1.25″ mounted or 2″ mounted\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn the Box\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv aria-labelledby=\"tab-title-local_2\" role=\"tabpanel\" id=\"tab-local_2\" class=\"woocommerce-Tabs-panel woocommerce-Tabs-panel--local_2 panel entry-content\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBandmate OIII Filter\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFilter Case\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eManuals \u0026amp; Warranty \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTele Vue 10-Years Warranty\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6245\/2965\/files\/Tele-Vue-Bandmate-Filters-Transmission-Graph.pdf?v=1669922695\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eTele Vue Bandmate Filters Transmission Graph\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Tele Vue","offers":[{"title":"1.25\" mounted","offer_id":43732876886245,"sku":"TV-B2O-0125","price":200.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2\" mounted","offer_id":43732876919013,"sku":"TV-B2O-0200","price":364.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6245\/2965\/files\/tele-vue-bandmate-oiii-filter-astronomy-plus-1_42c420ce-60a1-4111-9ba4-4961cda1ab62.png?v=1690484214","url":"https:\/\/istronomyplus.com\/products\/tele-vue-bandmate-oiii-filter","provider":"Astronomy Plus – Telescopes \u0026 Astrophotography Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
