Baader 2" O-III 10nm filter

Selling for $150 ono + postage. Sells for $238 new at AstroAnarchy.

Pickup also available from 2070

I bought this late November last year to use with my ES82 30mm eyepiece.

It produces ultra strong contrast of nebulae against my Bortle 5 skies and I really enjoyed exploring the Milky Way and LMC with it. O-III regions jumped out like fruit on a tree. However I also own a 1.25" O-III filter and am a bit short on cash at the moment, so I can't really justify owning two filters.

From what I've read on the internet this filter is also narrow enough for basic astrophotographic work.

Feel free to ask me any questions
