Buying an OIII filter - which ?

[Starkler]

Any suggestions as to which OIII filter to get and best price would be much appreciated :)

Main purpose is for blinking planetaries. My preliminary research suggests that the Astronomics has a quite wide passband and that the Baader has about the narrowest. The Baader is $155.

Any better deals around?

ps. You'll find that most, if not all OIII filters have an 11 nanometer bandpass.

I like the Astronomics filters sold by bintel as they have very tough coatings to protect the filter surfaces.

I've been using the Lumicon products for the last 20 years with no issues. Strongly recommend them for quality and service.
