Hi all - I am wanting some advice on which 2" Light Pollution Suppression Filter I should get for deep space astrophotography?

I understand that it won't make my suburban backyard a "dark site", but I am hoping that it will reduce some of the light pollution in my area.

I have been noticing that some of the members here are using:

Baader UHC-S
Hutech IDAP LPS
Lumicon Deep SkyAny advice or recommendations on what would be the best value LPS filter would be appreciated.

I've been wondering the same. I'm sure there must be a few members who have some ideas about this they can share...

Hi Guys, well i use The Hutech LPS filters, I have 72mm in the Takahashi and also one in the Canon 300mm Lens, I have used others but have found these to be one of the better types around, although not cheap, i feel they are worth every cent, and do the job very well.
