I am taking pictures through A SW 120ED using an unmodified Canon 60D and would like to get a 2" filter to reduce light pollution and sky glow . Which filter would be best value for money with my setup.

The Astronomik filters are really good, but quite pricey too.

Astronomik CLS seems to get most peoples approval

Depends how bad the LP is. You may need anything from a gentle wide band filter like the Baader Moon and skyglow to something like the Astronomik UHC.
