Folks,

Can anyone recommend an LRGB filter set for a mono CCD? Preferably not too expensive and available in Australia, but I know those two this usually don't come together ;)

Oh, I'm looking for 1.25" size and colour accuracy and transmittance are valued attributes...

Cheers,
Dunk

I use Astronomik, available from Bintel. They work fine for me and are one of the cheaper options ($400 for a 1.25" LRGB set)

Thanks Geoff!

Any thoughts on their new Deep Sky RGB filters (http://www.astronomik.com/en/photographic-filters/deep-sky-rgb-colour-filters.html?___store=en)?

I know Baader is another pretty good and popular brand, quite reasonably priced too.

I haven't got pics of this up yet on the site but they're just a basic LRGB set we import direct from manufacturer so it's much, much cheaper, and it is comparable to major brands. $149. Hope this is cheap enough for you.
