I have Baader 1.25" filters. Baader doesn't say on the side print what each filter IS (and 2 of the LRGB have (B))....bought 2nd hand, no box/case...

Could someone post a REAL colour photo of what each filter looks like "in the wild" please.... STUPUID. I know I mixed up R and B :screwy::lol2:

Of course, all the online shots show the filters in FALSE colours... GRRRR...would have avoided the NOOOOOOOOOOOOB question of moronicity

I'm probably missing something obvious, but can't you just look through them at a source of white light?

What I thought too, look thru any filter at white light and the color transmitted gives an idea of the spectral range its made to transmit, ie a "red" filter will block all colors except the reds its designed to pass through so will appear red. Mark
