Hi guys,
Floated this a few weeks back, got a few nibbles but no takers so here it is again...
Astronomik 2" CLS Filter. LNIB
Details here http://www.astronomik.com/english/eng_cls.html

Not planning to do much observing/photography from light polluted skies any more so this is now redundant.
Only used it a few times, but it does what it says. Great on galaxies!

Offers around the A$190 mark, and I'll take care of the postage :)

PM me if interested, or feel free to post anyquestions.
Cheers

PS. Marks on photo are only relections. The optical surface of this filter is perfect.

Ok, one last try before I Astromart this...
Rock bottom price... A$170 shipping included... LNIB
These are US$150 new plus shipping. Bintel sells them for $320.

I used it again last night in a light polluted area. Works very well. The Tarantula contrast improved out of sight. NGC253 also jumped out when using the filter. M42 was stunning through it. The definition of the whispy arms of the nebula really improved.
I am tempted to keep it, but the reality is I'll very rarely use it now that I have a decent dark sky observing site. Plus I need the cash for another project!!

Cheers
Rob

Trade the 1.25" for the 2".
